CAMERA ANGLES

Curator OF Photography

Last Sunday we began a dis
custom Of film processing, de-
scribing in a general way the
various steps involved. Today
we, will explain exactly how
you can process your own film
from start to finish.
Let's take the tray method
first-not because it is the
easiest, but because some day
you may be obliged to process
by tray if your tank is broken
or mislaid at a time when
you are in a hurry to have
look at your pictures.
AS stated last week, three
trays are needed-we will need
one for the developer. one for
the shortstop and the third
for the fixing bath. These
trays should be spaced far
enough apart so that the con-
tents Of any one will not en-
danger the others II mad
vertently splashed.
Have Everything In Place
The entire process, when
trays are used, must be car
ried out in absolute darkness
until the negatives have fully
cleared in the fixing bath. So.
before turning out the lights.
have a good look around to
make sure everything needed
is present and in place you
can quickly locate in the dark.
Roll film can act like a
creased eel. especially. in the
dark, and unless considerable
care is exercised it will twist
and turn and become tangled
with the paper backing and
cause you all sorts Of trouble.
To prevent this have a push
pin or clip handy so that when
the film is unrolled one end
can be fastened securely to
some stationary object.
With one end Of the film
fixed in this manner 1t will be
a fairly easy operation to strip
off the paper backing found
on the larger roll films. Next
make sure that 1t is the paper
that you throw away and not
the film-this mistake has
been made. believe it or not.
Danish Kinks, Form Loop
Now check the strip Of film
to clear it of any twists or
kinks. Then, holding 1t at each
end by a hand. allow the GEN.
ter to sag until 1t forms a u
shaped loop. At this point the
bottom Of the loop is placed in
the tray Of developer and by
alternately raising and lower
