Excuse the bad pun for the title
I decided to give film a go, after having digital SLRs for the past 8 year or so. I've kind of dived in at the deep and and decided to try the developing at home! I thought I'd make a little thread about how I get on here.
I've had some amazing advice and pointers already from you guys about film, developing and scanners etc, so it would be rude to not share the results!
This is what I've accumulated so far to get me going, with a few bits still on the way.
Canon EOS 500
Canon 35-80mm lens
Sigma Super Wide 24mm f2.8
AP compact developing tank
Tetenal colortec developing kit
RA 50 rinse aid
Digital thermometer
1000ml measuring cylinder
3 x 1000ml HDP bottles
V550 scanner arriving tomorrow
Small storage box to use as a water bath, aquarium heater to keep the temperature right, and a small aquarium filter to keep the water moving to distribute the heat
Still waiting for some funnels, jugs and smaller measuring cylinders. Oh and a changing bag to load the film into the tank
I currently have a roll of Kodak colour plus 200 loaded into the camera, waiting for a half nice day to get some shots to practice my first development.
Here's a few photos of what I have so far.......
If anyone has any developing tips, shooting with film tips or any other tip that would be great.
Hoping to get something developed by the end of the week!
Thanks for reading
