#C 41 PRESS KIT PROFESSIONAL#

For $40 even if I do only get 10 rolls that’s only $4 to develop each roll, half the price of the labs around. However, if you hang out on APUG or the Flickr film pages guys are pushing it 20-30 rolls. This kit makes 1L solutions of 3 different mixes, and it’s suggested to be good for 10-12 rolls of film. Which does a great job but the solution doesn’t last as long and you can’t top it up like the liquid stuff, once it’s burned it’s burned. So my only solution is to use the powdered press kit. I’d prefer to buy liquid mix since it’s cheaper and larger in quantity, but it’s deemed hazardous and can’t be transported here. It took a few days research but I found a Canadian supplier of the very popular Jobo/Unicolor C-41 Press Kit for film development. I’ve developed about 8 rolls of film since I got the kit 2 weeks ago and I’ve screwed up at some point in each session. I don’t have the right plumbing at the studio yet so I’m using the spare washroom in my condo as a make-shift dark room.Īnyway, developing color film is surprisingly straight forward although I wouldn’t say easy. So I’ve split the equipment in two places, the enlargers and print making stuff is at the studio and the developing equipment is at my condo.

I ended up finding an incredibly complete and high end dark room, it belonged to a new retired professional photographer of 50 years. About a month ago I started to seriously look into buying a darkroom, I wanted to develop my own film as well as make analog prints.
