Frequently asked questions
The things photographers ask us most.
A 1-reel 35mm Paterson tank with AGO modified funnel, one Paterson Auto-Load reel, a thermometer, dark bag, film picker, ADOX B&W developer and fixer, a 1 L storage bottle, film clips, measuring graduates, and a printed step-by-step instruction manual. Everything you need to develop one roll of 35mm B&W film.
Yes. The printed manual walks through the full process from start to finish. The dark bag means you can load film without a dedicated darkroom. Our wiki and video guides cover every step if you need more detail.
35mm (135 format). The included 1-reel tank and reel handle one roll of 35mm. For 120 medium format, you would need a 2-reel Paterson tank and an adjustable reel.
ADOX developer and fixer. Both are one-shot concentrates: mix with water, develop, discard. No special storage setup needed between sessions.
Yes. Any B&W developer (ID-11, Ilfosol 3, Rodinal, FX-39 II, and others in our shop) works with the included tank and reel. Same for fixer.
Yes. The Paterson 1-reel tank included in the kit ships with the AGO modified funnel. If you add AGO later, the tank is already compatible.
