Hello I have not done any print or film for 40 years. Spent a lot of time as a child helping my father in his darkroom. Have recently been scanning old family negatives, I have been so impressed by quality that I've decided to go back to film. Would like to end up sharing a darkroom. Will be looking for help and support.

Rob Archer is probably your closest FADU member, I'm sure he's give advise on Darkroom construction etc.
I live in Cambridgeshire if that's any help, probably too far away but we are all able to help with whatever questions you may have

Agreed with the former posts-plenty of knowledge and experience within this forum. Hope you already know how to scan negs, 'cos there may be a bit of a dearth of comments about that.....

Hi Timothy and welcome. The good news is that all your knowledge from 40 years ago will still be relevant and it will come back. The even better news is that materials and equipment have got better.

I am sure you will enjoy this "re-awakening" of interest

Mike
