Synopsis

The Film Developing Cookbook, 2nd edition is an up-to-date manual for photographic film development techniques. This book concentrates on films, their characteristics, and the developers each requires for maximum control of the resulting image.

For two decades The Film Developing Cookbook has helped photographers acquire a working knowledge of photographic chemistry―what photo chemicals do and why―for black and white film developing. Now reissued in a revised edition, this must-have manual for photographic film development techniques covers films, their characteristics, and the developers each require for maximum control of the resulting image. Readers will learn how to mix and use photographic solutions from scratch, and even how to create new ones. Includes invaluable information about films, developer ingredients, formulas, speed increasing, mixing and storing stock solutions, stop baths, fixers, washing, and chemical safety.

A must have for analog photography enthusiasts and any photography students using the darkroom.
