![]() ![]() Xi Jinping and Joe Biden will huddle on the sidelines of the APEC summit in California for their first encounter in a year as trade tensions, sanctions and the question of Taiwan have fuelled quarrels between Washington and Beijing.Ĭlimate has long been seen as an area where the two can find common ground, with US and Chinese climate envoys John Kerry and Xie Zhenhua meeting November 4-7 at the Sunnylands retreat in California in a bid to restart stalled cooperation. I LOVED dev'ing E6 - but stopped because I simply didn't shoot enough to make it worthwhile - the chemicals "go off" far quicker than B&W chemistry does - and I was probably only getting 3-4 rolls done before the chemicals died on me - at that rate it was cheaper to send them to Peak instead.China and the United States will launch a working group on climate cooperation, both countries said Wednesday, as the two sides work to deepen communication and mend fractured ties with a leaders' meeting in San Francisco just hours away. pulling a roll of "miniature stained glass windows" out of the soup - all complete, perfectly formed pictures - not negatives, not negatives with an orange cast, but perfect little miniatures. Cross-contamination of the chemicals is a BAD thing - and as you'll be re-using the same stuff every time until the chemicals are depleted (think it was 16 rolls of c41 in the small tetenal kit, increasing the duration of the stages every 4 rolls worth IIRC - that's another thing to keep track of BTW - how many rolls - 1 roll of 135 or 120 at 100iso = 1 "roll", seem to remember 400iso film being "worth" 2 rolls as it was harder on the chemicals)īut it's easy enough, and, if you DO go for the E6 option at some point, you'll have the BEST experience you can get with home film developing. E6 is also good for home dev - same kind of constraints, iirc there may be an extra stage with the Tetenal chemicals as c/f to C41 but it's just one more stage and one more time to keep track of.īe very careful to keep the chemicals segregated - I used seperate measuring jugs for each chemical - cheap 50p plastic jugs from asda, and colour coded the handles with different colours of insulating tape - same bands on the bottle, the bottle lid, and the jug. If you need help or advice, just ask and I'm sure someone will be along to advise. I'm sure my temperature control must have been all over the place, but those slides still look great thirty odd years later. I used to process my own slides in the kitchen sink when I was a kid. I'd say if you like colour film, go for it and don't worry about it being difficult. I haven't noticed any difference between them, although I have a preference for the ones with the separate bleach and fix because blix doesn't keep as well. ![]() I use the Digibase C41 kit ( ), but have used others in the past such as Tetenal. They all work fine, but obviously, the Jobo makes things quicker and easier. I run the process using a Jobo CPP tank, but have previously just used a water bath and before that the kitchen sink. ![]() This means there's no worrying about which combination of developer works with which film, what temperature to use, for how long etc. In some ways it's simpler than B&W because they are completely 'standard' processes. I develop C41 and E6 at home and really enjoy it. ![]()
