[Frameworks] D-19 testing
Hi all, I've pretty much got the conventional D-19 process down now (as taken from the darkroom cookbook). Now I feel it's time to experiment a little. I want to shoot one roll of 16mm film with the same subject matter/ lighting/ cam settings etc.. and then take sections of that film (5ft or so at a time) and develop them individually using different D-19 combinations. The problem is I want to develop with very small quantities of D-19. So I want to develop in standard photographic 35mm paterson tanks and not my massive lomos (which requires lots of chemistry). As far as I know there are no small developing tanks to develop 16mm tests. Is there? Does anyone have any information on how or where I could get my hands on such tester tanks to develop very short lengths of film well? Or if possible, how to modify a photographic 35mm developing tank to do some tests in.

Re: [Frameworks] D-19 testing
110 film is repackaged 16mm. If you need to process a two-foot long strip, reels designed for 110 still film will work nicely. I don't think any are still being made except possibly for the Jobo tanks, but there are probably plenty of old stainless ones on Ebay. --scott ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks

The Yankee Clipper has a 110 (16mm) setting:http://www.adorama.com/DKTC.htmlOr (better) you can get a stainless steel 110 reel:http://www.ebay.com/itm/Prinz-Stainless-Steel-110-Film-Developing-Reel-In-Original-Box-/150936795419Either one should handle about 33 inches of 16mm film.Ed-Original Message- From: Kevin TimminsSent: Nov 5, 2012 8:19 AM To: FrameWorks Subject: [Frameworks] D-19 testing Hi all,I've pretty much got the conventional D-19 process down now (as taken from the darkroom cookbook).

Re: [Frameworks] D-19 testing
That 110 reel is nice but buying it is going to cost more than buying another bag of Kodak D-19.Why don't you just have your chemistry in buckets or bottles and do dunk processing of your test strips? Do it all in the dark and save the time of loading that tank. Or you can just stuff your film in your 35mm tank.Since these are tests you don't really have to worry about scratching the film.

Re: [Frameworks] D-19 testing
If I understand you rightly, just mix up a gallon in a bucket, and likewise for the fixer and hypoclear, and do your processing from one bucket to another in the dark (or under a safelight for 7363). Especially if the film strips are short, this is (I submit) the fastest and easiest way to do it. Use a stainless steel pot for the developer to get it to temperature (in a water bath), and put a floating lid on it between uses. -Robert Schaller That 110 reel is nice but buying it is going to cost more than buying another bag of Kodak D-19.Why don't you just have your chemistry in buckets or bottles and do dunk processing of your test strips?

[Frameworks] Hello! Film Community in Berlin
Hello, I will be in Berlin for March and April 2013 and I wanted to reach out to the list serve, to see what sort of experimental film communities exist in Berlin. I already know of LaborBerlin and plan to work there while I am staying in Berlin, but any gestures to film communities would be so helpful! Thank you!
