Due to the technical nature of their materials, we focused on outreach methods that would benefit photographic curators, conservators and other interested members of the public. We created a revised, expanded website and a new Wiki article, using feedback from the Association’s target demographics. This will help the Cibachrome Association effectively publicize their information and gather further public awareness. ii Acknowledgements We would first like to start by thanking our wonderful sponsor liaisons from the Cibachrome Association, Dr. Professor Rita Hofmann and Mr. Jean-Marc Metrailler, for their ongoing support throughout our project. Rita’s dedication to providing us with contacts and information to help us complete our work, and her availability despite her busy schedule, was essential to our project’s success. Jean-Marc’s generosity and valuable insight were also vital to our ability to succeed in our project.

  • Photographic Film Reticulation Due to Temperature Changes During Film Development
    Photographic Film Reticulation Due to Temperature Changes during Film Development (this page intentionally left blank so that when printed double sided, the Abstract starts on the front of the next page REMOVE THIS TEXT BEFORE SUBMISSION!) Abstract Reticulation, a cracking-like defect on film negatives caused by temperature changes during development, represents an elusive effect for some photographers, and, for others, a devastating mishap. Establishing a relationship between reticulation and temperature changes will allow photographers to produce satisfactory negatives and provide insight on material behaviors of photographic film. Five rolls of identically exposed film were subjected to different temperature changes between photographic developer and stop bath fluid. Grain sizes were compared by analyzing Fourier transforms of microscope images of the film. Until a temperature change of 73.2°C, there is a linear relationship of 0.0013 µm/C between grain size and temperature change, without any exhibition of the reticulation effect. After the linear region, a 10°C change resulted in a 13.2% increase in grain spacing and the reticulation effect appears, revealing a minimum temperature change that produces reticulation. Film photographers looking to implement the reticulation effect should induce the greatest temperature change possible to ensure reticulation, while others looking to maximize resolution by having the smallest grain size should control for no temperature change between steps in the developing procedure. 1. Introduction Film photography is a long-lasting art form, its origins dating back to the early 1800s [1]. Although many advances have been made in the world of photography since then, such as the 1970s invention of digital cameras that require less disciplined and considered approaches, many photographers still prefer to use film cameras for their resolution.

  • Ilfotec Dd-X Liquid Concentrate Reusable Developer for Low Volume Black and White Film Processing in Spiral Tanks, Dishes, Trays and Rotary Processors
    HARMAN technology Limited TECH NICAL INFORMATION ILFOTEC DD-X LIQUID CONCENTRATE REUSABLE DEVELOPER FOR LOW VOLUME BLACK AND WHITE FILM PROCESSING IN SPIRAL TANKS, DISHES, TRAYS AND ROTARY PROCESSORS Overview ILFORD ILFOTEC DD-X is an excellent fine grain developer which gives full film speed and produces negatives that are easy to print. Correctly exposed negatives developed in ILFOTEC DD-X have a full range of tones, with depth in the shadows, a smooth transition through the mid-tones and bright detailed highlights. ILFOTEC DD-X is designed to complement the features of all ILFORD films, especially the range of ILFORD DELTA PROFESSIONAL films. It is particularly recommended for use with DELTA 3200 PROFESSIONAL film rated at EI 3200/36. It also gives excellent results when used with quality black and white films from other manufacturers. ILFOTEC DD-X ensures a good balance of fine grain, sharpness and tonal rendition producing negatives which allow a high degree of enlargement. In addition, it is highly recommended when fast films need to be push processed such as HP5 Plus, DELTA 400 PROFESSIONAL, DELTA 3200 PROFESSIONAL and SFX200. ILFOTEC DD-X is supplied as a liquid concentrate diluted 1+4 for one-shot use when the highest image quality is required. However, for greater economy it can be reused but image quality will be reduced slightly. Mixing instructions Note Photographic chemicals are not hazardous when used correctly. It is recommended that gloves, eye protection and an apron or overall are worn when handling and mixing all chemicals. Always follow the specific health and safety recommendations on the chemical packaging.

    ANALOGUE GROUP ANALOGUE GROUP ROYAL PHOTOGRAPHIC SOCIETY’S ANALOGUE GROUP MICROSITE ARTICLES MAY 2017 - SEPTEMBER 2019 ANALOGUE GROUP FILMTYPES: A NEW ANALOGUE DATABASE Fern Nuttall 6 SEPT 2019 Image copyright © Robert Couse-Baker An interest in analogue photography doesn’t come cheap. From cameras to chemicals, darkroom equipment to photo paper, there is a whole host of specialist equipment required to truly commit to the craft. Central to the field is the actual photographic film itself. New photographers may wish to try out various rolls before committing to a favoured stock, and even enthusiasts with a long history in analogue have faced various producers closing down or ending production and a need to explore other options. Faced with this dilemma analogue-enthusiast Dominik Sobe decided to compile a database of the numerous products out there. Filmtypes is an easy-to-navigate website bringing together 35mm films indexed along with information, specifications and sample images created with each particular roll. “When I first got into film photography I had a hard time figuring out which films I should buy.” Sobe explains on the website. “Filmtypes helps starters as well as people who already shoot film to educate themselves about the variety of films by showing the characteristics, photo examples, written & video reviews as well as providing them a way to engage in discussions.“ Understandably, as a new project, Filmtypes is not yet an exhaustive database but it is expected to will grow over time with more information and film stocks. Take a look at the website, it’s database and other information at www.
