Hi, I am thinking of buying multiple 100ml bottles to store HC-110 so that I can improve the longevity of the chemical. I was wondering if anyone has tried using medical sterile vials such as these. I am thinking of using a syringe to extract the chemical whenever I need. Do you think these bottles prevent air contact? Or the pores in the rubber are not good enough to keep the air away. Thanks for your advice :) -

Hello, After a lot of preperation I just developed my first b&w film today in my home and I was somehow succesful at developing it in the way I wanted to do it. But I have a problem about the smell. Even though I washed the negative in the tank with running water for at least 15 minutes and then washed it with Ilfotol wetting agent there is a weird smell coming from the developed film. Before that I used to give my films to several labs and none of them came with this weird smell. I developed Tri-X 400 pushed to 1600 with Ilford Ilfotec DD-X developer, Ilfostop stop bath and Ilford Rapid Fixer for the fix bath. I am scared of chemicals. I learned that developing chemicals are very hazardous to health. Some of them are even carcinogens. I would be grateful if you enlighten me in this subject as I am very excited and want to develop more film. -

Is there anyone, anywhere, who knows of an organization that will develop ECN-II (Seattle Film Works)? Failing that, is there anyone who is aware of a kit or source for chemicals that one might use at home? Lou Lohman
