thorkild Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 <p>Will it be possible to develop Ilford FP4 in a commercial C41 process? I will not do it myself.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User_502260 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 <p>If you really can't develop it your self, try sending it to Ilford:<br> https://www.ilfordlab-us.com/</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 <p>No. Mistakenly trying to run non C-41 films can wreck their chemistry.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrydressler Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 <p>Not to mention it will leave you a nice clear strip of film. The bleach will remove everything.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wblynch Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Like Larry said. C-41 will erase all images on your FP-4+ film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 FP4+ and other conventional black & white films are very easy to develop. Inexpensive powdered developer and fixer are much less expensive than C41 and with the temperature control needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_brown7 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 <p>Hi,<br> just a paterson tank and reel, a bottle of Rodinal, some fixer, a dark bag, a timer and a flask of tea and after an hour and a half you will have a Stand Developed roll of FP4 which you will look at, and if there are any images on the film, say to yourself Ha, that was OK.<br> Of course there will be images on the film and the magic feeling of that moment never goes away, not even after 50 years.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
