Questions & Answers

KEVIN M : How do you load the film into the tank? Are there any other accessories neededJON R : you will need the sheet film holders for developing, unless you are only doing one sheet at a time.ANDREW R : Normally you use these with 4x5 film hangers that go into the tank (one hanger for each sheet). You use one tank for each part of the process (i.e., one tank for pre-soak, one for developer, one for stop bath, and one for fix). The entire process is carried out in a darkroom with all lights off as these tanks are not light safe.
RICHARD D : How do you agitate this tank?ANDREW R : Tank processing normally involves using a rocking motion to agitate.
BRET B : How much chemicals does this tank hold? Is it a 2 liter tank?ANDREW R : I believe this unit has a 1/2 gallon capacity.

Rated 2 out of 5

Cheap, thin and poorly molded plastic

I bought 3 of these and was disappointed. The plastic was molded very poorly and had bumps and ridges on the inside that will make it harder to clean. Overall (thanks to the thinness) these felt like disposable single use containers, not something you would depend on. A buyer might do well to track down some quality used tanks. That said, the the thinness may help if you use a water bath to regulate temp.
