Quick tip that I learned that wasn't talked about in the video but can save your future rolls - use your finger to hold the rotating cover when pouring the chemicals out. It can become loose very easily during agitation and can open up when pouring your chemicals out and expose your film before it's fixed! I learned the hard way

ECN-2 film can also be developed with C41 chemicals. You need to remove the protective backing first though. E-6 color positives (dia) can also be developed to color negatives if you’re feeling adventurous. C22 film is not compatible. The higher temperature of C41 destroys the emulsion. Also the chemicals are not compatible from what I know. But C22 can be processed to B/W film.

Thanks for the video. I bought a Lot (a box with a bunch of nearly useless crap in it) at an auction several years back that contained about 15 Kodak canisters of film. I got tired of looking at them and was ready to throw them out and thought, eh, I could just throw out the film and use the all yellow metal canisters for something. Then I thought, heck, I'll do a little research, maybe the film is worth something on ebay. After doing some research I realized that the film wasn't new, it was used and that these particular kinds of film (Plus-X PX 135) was discontinued in 1969. That was an eye opener. Heck, I could have previously unknown Woodstock photo's. Kaching. That's why I'm here researching how to develop my own. Can't really see entrusting previously unknown photos of the JFK assassination to some other film developer. Thanks.
