This kit is a great way to get you processing black and white film for the first time. It is the only kit we sell that contains both the accessories AND chemicals needed to go straight from an unexposed movie from your camera to give you a finished, developed negative in your hands. The kit allows you to process 35mm or medium format (120mm) film.

The kit contains the following items:

  • 1 x Paterson two-film tank with two spirals
  • 1 x Thermometer
  • 1 x Adox 25ml Rodinal measuring cylinder
  • 1 x Adox 1000ml measuring jug
  • 1 x 100ml of ADONAL film developer
  • 1 x 100ml of ADOFIX Fixer
  • 1 x 100ml of ADOFLO wetting agent
  • 1 x Exposed film to practice with the film spooling process
  • 1 x Comprehensive manual with many images explaining the film development process 

You can develop ten films with this kit before reordering any chemistry.

The following items are assumed to be in your house already:

  • Dark room to spool the film (alternatively, buy a changing bag) 
  • Stop clock with minute hand 
  • Scissors 
  • Clothes pegs to hang the film for drying 
  • Measuring beaker


Suppose you need any of these ancillary items. In that case, they are all available to purchase separately from us, as is a low-price scanner for you to load your negatives into your PC/Mac or expand equipment for printing.

Avery S. ★★★★★

The developing tank is well-designed, and I love that it comes with everything you need in one box. I was able to develop my first roll in about an hour with no issues. Even the chemicals are clearly labeled, which took the guesswork out of the process.

Violet U. ★★★★★

Took a few rolls to get the hang of the measuring marks on the tank, but once I did my first negatives came out perfectly clear. The included chemicals are exactly what you need to avoid searching for separate developer and fixer.

George ★★★★★

Chemicals and tanks all in one box means I never had to piece together separate orders before my first roll, which saved me a weekend of confusion. The included developer and fixer mixed up easily, and my first negatives came out with real detail instead of the muddy mess I half expected. Worth ever
