Automated Agitation

 

With AGO Film Processor you have the flexibility to adjust the default agitation speed and intervals to your personal preferences.

 

 

Timely alarms let you know when its time for the next step in your developing process. 

 

Easily pour out the previous chemicals and pour in the next. 

 

Automated Agitation

Finally a film processor that does the work for you.

Temperature compensation

Groundbreaking time compensation feature: you no longer need to meticulously maintain the chemical temperature. Just pour in the chemicals within the right temperature range. AGO takes care of the rest by continuously monitoring the temperature and automatically adjusting the processing time during the process, guaranteeing consistent negatives every time. 

AGO utilizes various compensation graphs. For black and white chemicals, the reactions closely align with the Ilford Time/Temperature chart. However, when it comes to color chemicals, each type exhibits unique characteristics, necessitating the development of distinct compensation graphs for each.

Less Chemical Consumption

With horizontal rotational agitation you can save up to 60% on chemicals depending on your use case and the size of Paterson tank you decide to use.

Need to develop vertically? For your high-precision work AGO enables you to develop in a vertical mode. Keeping in mind that the temperature compensation feature is disabled in vertical agitation.

Compatible with
Super System 4

Use any Paterson Super System 4 developing tank from the smallest 1-reel tank up to the biggest 8-reel tank. This means you can develop up to 8 rolls of film at once. 

 

And you can develop photographic paper with a special reel developed by Vintage Visual.

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
