Re: film canister camera question

I have actually used a suggestion from someone quite a while back on the
pinhole list. When I use the 35mm canister cameras and 35mm film, I use
another 35mm canister filled half way up with pre-mixed developer[making a
mini daylight tank]. In the darkroom [or I have used a changing bag] I take
the film piece out and put it into the developer filled canister and shake for
the development time. I then transfer the developed film into another
canister with fixer in it. I then shake and fix for 5 min. I discard both
sets of chemicals since I only use a little over an ounce. Take the developed
film and rinse it under running water, hang and dry.
Hope this helps some.
