Default Hi from Biggin Hill

I'm no photographer, but regularly use a DSLR when surveying as part of my job. I still have my old 35mm film cameras and I now have a couple of vintage cameras. I would like to learn to use them properly and maybe process my own film. I've never tried anything like this before, so will be paying close attention to everybody's posts on this excellent site.

Hi Mike and welcome. Film processing really isn't that difficult. Initially a changing-bag and a developing tank is all that required plus a developer and fixer.

I hope we can help you achieve your aims

Mike
