Clever temperature compensation system
Just heat up your chemicals to the recommended temperature range and start developing.
AGO will compensate for the temperature drop-off or increase that occurs while agitating removing all of the stress of ruining your negatives.
Automated Agitation
Pour in the chemicals and let automatic agitation take care of it.
Timely alarm ensures you attend your machine at the right time.
Automatic agitation
Pour in the chemicals and let automatic agitation take care of it.
Timely alarms will let you know when the process step is about to end so you can attend your machine at the right time to change the chemicals.
You maintain the control of agitation speed and intervals, just set them to your liking and you are good!
Temperature compensation system
No more stressing about your chemical temperatures
Just heat up your chemicals to the recommended temperature range and start developing. AGO will compensate for the temperature drop-off or increase that occurs while agitating removing all of the stress of ruining your negatives.
AGO’s groundbreaking time compensation system uses compensation graphs specific for each chemistry type.

I was very impressed with how easy the AGO makes film developing. What can sometimes seem like a daunting task becomes really straightforward. Without having to worry too much about the temperature of your chemistry, and knowing that the agitation is all taken care of for you really simplifies the whole enterprise. I found myself reading a book while it was working; the comparatively quiet motor gently trundling along back and forth is surprisingly soothing! – DaveTheWalker in 35mmc
