Quick notes on standard procedures I use for developing different types of film. These usually work well for me, based on the equipment I use for exposing and developing and my shooting methodologies; your mileage may vary and small differences in procedure can mean large differences in results. Treat these notes as suggestions only and run tests before using these suggestions on your own important work.
