The developer from any C-41 kit, from any company, should give good results with any color-negative, movie film. For those who want to mix from scratch, here are some formulas to try:
Distilled water (105F) | 800ml | 500 ml |
Potassium Carbonate (anhydrous) | 37.5g | - |
Sodium Sulfite | 4.3g | 4.2 g |
Potassium Iodide | .002g | - |
Potassium Bromide | 1.5g | 1.5 g |
Anti-fog #1 (0.2% solution) | - | 20.0 ml |
Sodium Carbonate | - | 33.8 g |
Hydroxylamine Sulfate (HAS) | 2.0g | 2.0 g |
Kodak Anti-Cal #3 | 2.5g | - |
CD-4 | 4.8g | - |
CD-3 | - | 4.0 g |
Water to make | 1000ml | 1000 ml |
The pH of the solution is very important and must be 10.00 (+/- .03) at 80 degrees F. You may find that you have to vary the Carbonate +/- 50%.
