Question: how dark is dark enough?
On 1/12/2010 7:31 AM Jean-David Beyer spake thus:
My darkroom leaks somewhat under the door. But my darkroom is L shaped
and the door is at the far end, away from the enlarger and sink. I
cannot see the leak until I have accommodated for 5 minutes or so. I
have tested exposures of paper (not the "quarter test" but the one Kodak
specify), and I get no fogging of paper even with the safelights on.
So what exactly is the test that Kodak specifies? Googling finds no info
on this (but a lot of results about "quarter test"). And why is it
better than the quarter test?
I suppose I'll do a test when I finally fire up the darkroom again.

You were wrong, and I'm man enough to admit it.
