Old style still my preference

I works. It does not leak. I much prefer this to the plastic tanks and reels mostly because it is what I learned on. I sometimes do stand development and a stainless steel tank is infinitely preferable in that case where it is placed in a water bath for an hour to maintain a constant temperature. This along with a Hewes reel will last a lifetime.

Does the job

Tank is well made. If ind the light baffle on the lid a bit wobbly. There is no light leak but you need to be careful when handling the inside of the lid.

See any errors on this page?

Does it include reel?

No, it does not include a reel I would highly recommend the Hewes stainless steel reels. They are more expensive, but most of the others on the market are only a half-step above junk.

How much chemistry do you use? At this small level is the chemistry strong enough to develop the film?
Asked by: Douglas
Use 300 ml of chemistry in this tank. This is pretty much standard for 35 mm film tanks like the Patterson, and others. Rodinal at 1+50, HC-110 at 1:31, DD-X at 1+4, all work well in this tank at 300 ml. I would recommend the Hewes reel as some of the other stainless reels are cheaply made and not very good.
