Thank you so much for this video. There are other instructional videos out there that go into more depth, but this is the video that I watched which made me think "yes, I think I can do this!". My local film lab closed just after I'd bought a big pack of excellent quality expired E6 film. I didn't know what to do about it but I watched this video and decided to try processing it myself. It's been a success! This also got me started with processing at home in general and I've now done quite a bit of B&W processing too. So you've really inspired me!

this colour after the first wash, is due to this film being a 120, LF sheet stock has this too, it is due to a 'anti-halation layer' in the backing of these stocks ( this allows light to 'strike' the films' silver side only ONCE, as some cameras' designs have metal backs, aka the film pressure plates ( or the separators in LF double dark /grafmatic holders), these can reflect the incoming focused image back onto the emulsion side, in effect acting as a stray light does from the front, not only exposing the film, but adding CA, flair, etc.).

My first home development in 30 years was a slidefilm. I also used the Tetenal E-6 kit, and the CineStill TCS-1000 heater. Pretty easy, and great result. I use demineralized water for the chemicals, as i have a lot of calsium in the tapwater. For rinse i use tapwater. I buy the demineralized water in the local grosery store in 1 litre bottels (the cheapest solution), which serves as great single-use chemical bottles too. It's in chemical bottles as other household chemicals, and it's easy to squeeze the air out of the bottle for storing the chemicals. I wonder if i could add some Kodak Photo-Flo for the last rinse before stabilizer or use Photo-Flo in the stabilizer (which is mixed with demineralized water too) to avoid calsium spots on the film. Or whether Photo-Flo will create problems in relation to the stabillizer. I guess i have to test it with a "not so important" film.

You don't need to use photo flow after the stabilizer if you use distilled water to mix it.

Very interesting. I always thought there was a great mystery to developing films/slides but it looks very easy. Two questions: 1. Why do you pre-wash the film? 2. If you’ve already developed a number of films, how do you know how much extra time to give the current film? Or is it all down to experience? Many thanks.
@lababine82242 жыл бұрын
Hi, I may be answering a bit late to your question but 1) You need to pre-wash it because film is covered with layers of anti-hallo and stuff so just washing it allows you to get rid of it so you don't pollute your chemicals. 2) There is always a manual with developping kits explaining precisely which additionnal time you need to add after each 2-3 films, because the chemical reaction tend to take longer when you already used it before. Hope it helps :)

I can not approve your way to develop E-6 slides, the way you do may cause an underdevelopment and some damage to the film. You don't rince the film with water from the faucet (tap) but you have to stay at 38°C even for the washing in between and the lack of agitation isn't really counterbalanced by 30 seconds more. C41 can be processed this way but E6 needs more precision.
