I wonder how many of you do your own colour printing on your own?
Anyone have their own colour darkroom?

I am thinking of setting one on my own but I dont know where to get supplies for chemicals.

Thank you guys~
 

I do my own colour printing years ago, using M701 with a colour head.
cibachrome/Ektacolor.

May buy from some colour lab in 5 litre form.

or FujiHunt chemical. or Ruby?? or ?????
 

do you still hanprint by yourself now?
what paper processor do you use?
 

B/W yes, colour no. I shoot Trans many years ago.
Planning to print colour soon, some friends want to re exp the darkroom again.
Tray/drum to process. Processor? too lux. haha
 

wet darkroom is fun,but sad to see that more and more are leaving wet darkroom.
i really enjoy the time i spend in the darkroom. it is so magical.

do you have friends that have their own colour darkroom?

wet darkroom will always live. I've used it so long ago but still develop my own negatives....even though there's this huge force called DIGITAL..... i still shoot my own b&W negs, and just do contact printing by using some stupid lamp here.....

In fact, i am lamenting the fact that i do not have my own enlarger....color enlarger to finetune the contrasts and makeuse of filters...

yes the developing process is magical....but the printing process is like.....as if just about to climax:embrass: .... :bsmilie:

its when the image starts appearing thats the most magical part.

i got this magical inspiration after watching JAWS.....when it was first released....:embrass:
 

There are so many information on doing b/w prints but none on colours.
Can anyone advise me on the kind of equipments, chemical or papers that are needed to do colour prints?
A demo would be great!!

If you intend to do your own enlargement, you will need a enlarger with a colour head or CP colour correction filter. C-41 processing or E6 you just need a processing tank/drum will do.
 

I will be ordering E-6 processing kit for my 4 x 5 processing. Any one interested may contact me/pm/sms/call etc.:)
