My first time!!

After a deep breath I started, all seemed to go well, I then looked and YES!!! I just developed my first film!!! OK, for those old hands out there this may not be so earth shattering, but. I got a daylight developing tank from ebay, bought a roll of Ilford FP4 and a bag full of bottles. After following the Ilford site PDFs I now have a developed film hanging up to dry. When it's dry and I can scan the negs I'll try and post a decent pic, if there are any.:D

When I've done a 120 I'll try the flatbed, hopefully it will work.

The last time I tried to scan glass slides they were of my wife's Great Uncle Ernest and his steamboat on the Belgian Congo but I digress....

You will spend hours looking at film development charts on websites and forums and wonder if HP5 at 8 minutes in Rodinal produces better negs than Tri-X at 7 minutes in D76.

....and then start to find reasons for both.

Carry on....
