Talk:Photographic processing

message: This article appears to duplicate much of the material in photographic developers. I suggest it should be merged/subsumed into that article which is significantly more complete. Linuxlad 23:22, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Can a "Film Labs" page be added to wikipedia? One that focuses specifically on stills and another that focuses specifically on "motion picture"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.129.88.30 (talk • contribs) 
:And what exactly would such a "Film labs" page or pages contain? Remember that Wikipedia is not a link farm, nor a directory. --Imroy 04:11, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Can anyone confirm the accuracy of the following text, taken from the 'further processing' section? I've never heard of this - are we talking Colorvir here?
"If colour negative film is processed in conventional black and white developer, and fixed and then bleached with a bath containing hydrochloric acid and potassium dichromate solution, the resultant film, once exposed to light, can be redeveloped in colour developer to produce an unusual pastel colour effect."

text: The same process is described in the cross processing article, also with no reference. I have no idea what the process is called or if the description is accurate. --Imroy (talk) 05:01, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It may be difficult to find references since the film manufactures are most unlikely to support treating their film in this rather unpredictable process, but it does work as I have several times processed film in this way in my own darkroom. I'll try and find some reference. Velela (talk) 13:26, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That would be interesting and useful for the article, thanks. I'd never heard of this being done, the nearest I could think of is Colorvir, which is used with silver prints and gives random and gaudy results. Would it be appropriate to move the paragraph to the 'further processing' section?

message: Quite a lot of this article now needs to be moved into the past tense, as many of these photographic processes are no longer available: the film is no longer made, and the labs have shut down the process, or indeed shut down altogether. -- The Anome (talk) 14:16, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Not so obvious.  See MOS:TENSE: By default, write all articles in the present tense, including for those covering products or works that have been discontinued.  Events are past tense.  K-14 is a process for developing Kodachrome, a recipe, and it still is, even though no labs actually do it. K-14 is a process used for Kodachrome film that was discontinued on ... Gah4 (talk) 14:41, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
