Tray Development
I have been a big fan of tray development for 26 years. There is a step by step
article on our web site in the Free Articles section www.viewcamera.com I can do 6-8 sheets at a time for different development times in one session. The keys are emulsion side down and rotate the stack every minute or so. steve simmons |

session. The keys are emulsion side down and rotate the stack every minute or so. Heh, I just tried 2 at a time for the same development time and scratched the living bejeezus out of my negs. Ah well, practice makes perfect, I suppose! Ewan |

I do 4-6 at a time (8x10) emulsion side up and as long as the developer is about 70 degrees or less then the scratching is not to bad. Warmer developer makes scratchier negs. I find Tri-X the best. T-max scratches easier. |
