Thanks for watching! Please post any questions down below and subscribe to see more analog photo tutorials! I hope this video can be useful for anyone starting to develop their own film, or making a minimal travel film developing kit! Here are links to most of the materials seen in the video!
Chemical and film specific items are mainly found on either Freestyle Photo, or B&H, both very good online photo supply retailers that I trust, and you can certainly buy everything you need from them. I will link whoever has the best price right now. Other items and equipment can be found more affordably on sites like Ebay or Amazon, and many locally at a dollar store, so I will link to those as well.
I will put a star* next to the totally essential items.
Chemistry:
- *developer, Kodak d-76: www.freestylephoto.com/146481...
- *Fixer, Eco-Pro Neutral Fixer: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
- (*technically optional but I highly recommend) Photoflo/Wetting Agent, Photographers' Formulary Formaflo: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
- Hypocheck, Arista Premium: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
- Stop Bath, Foma Fomacitro: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
Equipment:
- Developing tanks (also you may find good luck getting these used on EBay for a big discount):
- *$31 Patterson super system, 2 reel (can develop both 35mm and 120 film) : www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
- Metal 2 reel tank w/ 2 35mm reels: www.freestylephoto.com/919235...
- Stand-alone 120 film reel for Metal tank ^: www.freestylephoto.com/911262...
- Other:
- *Pitcher (you can get these at b&h/freestyle, but they are more expensive) cheapest is to get new on eBay, there are lots of styles and options of size, glass Pyrex measuring style pitchers can work also: www.ebay.com/itm/234780273432...
- *Thermometer, this legacy one from b&h is good and very affordable: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
- *Storage Bottle, here is a simple 500ml bottle at b&h, they have many kinds and sizes for good prices if you wanted to get 1 liter or gallon sized to mix stock solutions, though many other kinds of bottles/ mason jars will also work: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
- Film changing bag: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
- *Film sleeves, there are the 7 rows of 6 exposure 35mm ones that I prefer. Available in lots of other orientations and film types: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...
- *Scissors, *String/fishing line, *clothes pins, *old towel, *bottle opener, *sharpie marker. You’ll need and want to have all of these, but try and either find them at home or go to a dollar store, no need to spend lots, you can find these almost anywhere for cheap. You may also have good luck finding your pitcher and / or storage bottles at the dollar store as well.
Thanks so much for watching! I hope you have a great day!
