zenit_zepplin Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Is there no such thing as an E-6 kit in a powder form? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g._armour_van_horn Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I've never heard of one, and from what I've seen of the ingredients of different parts, it wouldn't be possible for several of the solutions, even it it were possible for one or two of them.

discpad Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I've seen C-41 powder; and **in theory** E-6 powder could be made... But it could be rather shaky. I would say the first developer, reversal bath and fixer could easily be distributed as powders; while pre-bleach would need to go as a liquid because of the formalin.

jordan_w. Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I think that Freestyle Photo markets a powder E-6 concentrate kit under their "Arista" house brand. I haven't tried it, though. Certainly all the Kodak, Tetenal and Agfa E-6 kits I've seen use liquid concentrates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenit_zepplin Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 I see, thanks for the input. found some info on arista kit, but it's also a liquid one. I see what you mean about the solvent, would not be a problemme for me, but clearly it would not very marketable in general Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan_w. Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Hm, I could have sworn that there was an Arista powder E-6 kit. Maybe they discontinued it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
