I started with two: “what makes the temperature in the C-41 colour negative film development process so critical, aside from altering the development time?” and “do negatives developed at room temperature look significantly different than those processed at suggested temperatures, especially in the age of film scanning?”Īccording to Wikipedia (trust me, I also hate using Wikipedia as a source…), issues with temperature can cause a range of issues, from changes in development amount (either over or under) to color shifts. Let’s start with a few questions… Questions, questions… The test you see below were performed by me for a recent class on color darkroom printing (RA-4). There is however one solution which has fallen to the wayside: ignoring the high-temperature requirement and developing the film at room temperature instead. In recent years, the resurgence of analog photography in the mainstream photographic world has led to several retail products and community solutions to help with this problem, including the use of sous vide machines to create a consistent water bath temperature and modifying aquarium heaters to heat chemistry and the development tank. Temperature scares off a lot of people interested in trying color film development, as many development kits call for very specific and constant temperatures generally far above average room temperature (104☏/40☌) with a variance of less than two degrees Fahrenheit in either direction. Resources for color film development ( C-41 for negative film and E-6 for slide film) are fewer and farther between in comparison to black and white, and there is one major limiting factor – temperature. This comes much to the chagrin of many amateur photographers looking to tinker and professional photographers looking to save a little money by developing colour film at home. In the world of home film development, black and white dominates the market. The service the quality and the outcome was phenomenal! I hope they always in business.Developing color negative film at room temperature: the best option that nobody uses? - EMULSIVE Close Search for: "Just had a very personal photograph restored at Wheaton's.
