I am looking to develop my first roll of black and white 35mm film. I just bought the 'Paterson started kit' which comes with 3 different chemicals. I have looked at the 'massive dev chart' and found developing times for the film i am using ( Rollei Retro 400S ) But i dont understand the measurements or use of the other 2 chemicals. Could someone point me into the right direction of what to do at this stage?

I wish I could help, but I don't know.

Bump.

what's not to understand?
measure your developer temp & quantity, dilute as directed.
stop bath for 30sec
fix for 3-5 min
rinse for 20 min
finish with a quick bath in distilled water

How do you know how much fix to dilute into how much water? what does "Dilution 1+4 until 1+9" mean?
>>
>>3045407
Does the fix depend on the type of film? or is it independent?

Add the total number of parts together, then divide that by the total volume you need in the tank. That will give you one part, then you can just make the rest up.

So 1:4 is 5 total parts (1+4), imagine you wanted 300ml of solution...you'd divide 300ml by 5 to get 60ml. One part = 60ml. So at 1:4 you're looking at 60:240. Always done as chemical:water.

Fixer last almost forever. To test it cut a little strip of the exposed film you wanna fix and put it in the fixer. See how long it takes to completely clear the strip, multiply by two the time just to be safe and you're good to process your real film this time.
