Default Hello from Poland!

I've found your website and I've been interested in this subject for quite a while. I'd like to find out more about having a dark room. Any tips?

I'd suggest having a good look at the Ilford website, there's many useful guides etc.

Hi, Welcome to FADU.

YouTube has quite a few videos that may be of help, just type in "building a darkroom at home".

My advise would be to start small. You don't need much kit to develop film at home - just a tank, chemicals and somewhere dark (I use a changing bag). You need a bit more space and kit for printing but it's worth the effort. There's nothing like the magic of watching a print come up in the developer - and I've been doing it for about 50 years!
