Developing E6 Slde Film at Home

With the right chemistry, it is straightforward to develop E6 colour film at home. Scott Wittenburg offers this quick course on the three step process. The important thing is to keep the chemistry at the desired temperature during processing. Since E6 is usually done at higher temperatures than B&W, avoiding air conditioned or cold ambient temperatures is a factor. As Scott shows, simply using a large tub of warm water to keep chemistry ready is critical. Take your time and the results will be amazing. Also included in the podcast is a lesson on shooting copyslides, with slide film of course.
