You have to skip bleaching step in this technique.

And some ( like this one ) will have it in one step. Some kits may have bleach and fixer as separate steps in the development process. This is a part where there's some variability. Next is the Bleach Fix or Blix as it's more commonly known. Color Developer Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3. Although the bottles are cute - they are sealed with a foil like thing that is impossible to take off with fingers. I do like the small bottles - they are cute.

Manual development by hand is the only way. Most photographers won't have these automated machines at home. C-41 was designed as an automated process where machines would do all the work. C-41 kits meant for home use can alter the formula a bit to make it easier to develop film with manual methods. There's still a reason to dish out a few words. If every C-41 developer / kit is the same - what's the point of reviewing them? Different C-41 kits should also develop all films the same way. Regardless of the base speed for the film. This means that all films are developed in a single temperature, for a specified time. Same for photographers - everyone will have a go-to developer for every circumstance.Ĭ-41 is a standardised process. Some films might prefer one developer and others a different one. Is it weird to review C-41 kits? When developing black and white photos - each developer will give a different look.
