It's not THAT dangerous as long as you're super careful and experienced with chemistry. Most of these chemicals aren't actively fuming out toxic gases like acids.

Quick tip for the peeps out there: if you use glass storage bottles it takes longer to get up to temperature, but then they maintain the temperature better. Plastic bottles are the opposite. Neither is better than the other, just personal preference

I just use a water bath to keep the chemistry at the proper temps.

Great video! One thing I'd recommend, if you have a Fitbit or watch with luminous dial, take it off when your arms are in the changing bag. My Fitbit turned on while in my bag, and I'm pretty sure it fogged my film a bit.

Quick tip that I learned that wasn't talked about in the video but can save your future rolls - use your finger to hold the rotating cover when pouring the chemicals out. It can become loose very easily during agitation and can open up when pouring your chemicals out and expose your film before it's fixed! I learned the hard way

That 1000 pack of rubber bands comes in handy...until I got a tank with a screw top I made sure to put it on my older one so the air inside doesn't ICBM launch the lid into the great beyond from thermal expansion (like the water heater on Myth busters.)

Great vid Willem, Just one thing for the people out there. After every inversion cycle: tap your tank on the counter to prevent bubbles sticking on your film. I can tell from experience that its really shitty when you have bubble marks on your photos.

idk why I even clicked on this video so fast, I've been developing myself for a year now. Guess I was just excited for a new Willem upload lol

The difference between this video and your first one is NUTS! Crazy how much has changed! :)

Literally in the last week started thinking about moving from black and white developing to include colour 🙌🏻 Perfect timing 👌🏻

Great video as always!!! As someone who develops my own film I have to say that it’s super fun, makes getting your photos back that much more rewarding, and saves you so much money! If you’re thinking about doing it yourself, GO FOR IT!!

wow when i read the notification i thought he reuploaded the old one😂 ps: ayyy portra boi comin’ thru with the regular uploading!!!!

Love seeing more people doing home devs here. FWIW, I've been using the Kodak FlexiColor C41 chemistry in small-batch mixes and a cheap ebay Sous vide works as well as a red one.

film sous vide i'm into it

I’m a digital Tog for 15 years. I’m breaking myself into film this year. I’m so ready and look forward for this

Thanks for the video! Question for experienced film developers. How many times can I reuse the chemicals? And/or how long can I keep them for? Thanks

Killer video as always Willem! I’ve been a little scared to develop color as I’ve only developed black and white, but this video inspired me to do it! :) might have to film it for my channel too! I’m already excited for the next upload!!

Willem's developing game has gotten so fancy he's using a sous vide for temp control lol

love how you can catch subtle franticness at the cuts

Just started my first roll of film. So this is perfectly timed

Now we only need the black and white developing tuorial! Love how Willem explains it

I used that og video as a guide for a long time, super hype to see a sequel!

Love the progression from when you started this channel man!

What a new film development process! It's become my favorite video.

Made it look really straightforward. Thanks.

Always a good day when Willem uploads

This was extremelly helpful Willem, thank you 👊

Nice video spent 40 years shooting with twin lens camera till my old age lol Always looked for apartments with no bathroom window Keep up with the good work Nice to see young ppl Still shoot film

uploaded a video the same day as Willem, I feel the power in my hands now

Haha usually I just pray that they come out similar to the lab development. I personally just enjoy the process every once in a while.

I used to develope B&W back in the nineties but never colour, but I'm using film again after 20 years of digital and high prices with no control over the developement process means this could be the way to go. Thanks a ton.!

Is it the same process as B&W

Your studio is a vibe.

One plus about that temp controller is you can sous vide some delicious food while you are developing! lol. I bought an Anova unit to do what you are doing in the video. Takes the headache out of temp control. Thanks for including that in your video.

Must try developing myself at home. Thanks for the vid 😁😁

I've watched your first video and have been considering trying this, wasn't expecting to get teased again. BTW, it would have been cool if you had taken some, for example, already processed film and demoed how the reels work outside the bag, it's something a lot of these tutorials leave out

That Diablo photo is just amazing!!!!!!!!

I loved the old video back then. So I also have to love the updated version! So good to learn from you. Could you update your scanning at home video as well haha? Your photos looks so damn sharp 😍

Always a good day when I get a new V-beeks vid

Worth noting the temperature control system is just a re-badged "sous vide" machine. You may already have one, been wanting one for cooking, or you can pick them up cheap on amazon.

I put your videos up on the tv, i watch for the content, my sister watches for willem 😂

I just ordered the Cinestill Temperature control system after watching the video. Maintaining the correct temp for my chemicals is my biggest complaint with developing film at home. I’m looking forward to giving it a try.

such a dope setup

I learnt how to do this whole process at school before digital cameras existed, but I only ever did black and white film. I didn’t realise coloured film developing is the exact same process.

I'd recommend softly hitting the table with kaiser tank few times once you stop agitating to get rid of the small air bubbles that might be on the film itself.

Appreciate the tutorial dude

You somehow made this feel like a really really chill version of my organic chemistry lab i took this year lol

This is surprisingly easy like wow

Thank you bro!! This is very helpful 🤝😭

I just used an old tropical fish tank heater but that was waaaay before Cine Stills. It was pretty good.

I recommend after agitating tapping the tank a little against the counter to knock out air bubbles

The old video is the one that put me on to your channel, literally was like “ay that boy remaking his classic” lmao

I can smell this video takes me back to 2001/2003 the darkroom in my high school photography class. Haven’t developed any film since but enjoyed the video!

Good grief ! Unicolor ; I was using that in the seventies to home process my colour film and trannies. Great to hear that it is still around !!

Can you compare at home versus lab - just the development and scanned at home, and developed at home, scanned at lab, and then both at the lab and both at home. Preferably same camera, same film, same scenes. I really really wanna see some "benchmarks" like is it even worth using lab services or you're better of on your own.

Smooth transitions

Loading the film onto the spools in the dark is something you'll need to practice several times with spent film until you can do it with confidence in the changing bag

Just moved and finally have a space to develop that is dark. I'll be coming back to this video.....

Oh also - the temp control system works exactly like a sous vide which is great for cooking! So if you like cooking too that will work as a two for one!

I highly recommend using kodak photoflo instead of the given stabilizer, the difference was actually insane and one bottle of photoflo last years because you only need 5ml per liter or so of water

C-41 final rinse has a funigcide in it along with a wetting agent.

Should try and upgrade to steel reels and tanks! Patterson reels always crinkle my film especially in hotter and more humid places. Takes a little more practice to load the reels, but once you get it, it becomes 10x easier!

that video you made is the reason i am here now. pretty epic

for the cinestill heater you could also use a sous vide 2:11

Really debating doing this

This video really made me miss developing my own film! Think it’s time to dig out the Patterson tank 😂

Thanks for the video. I bought a Lot (a box with a bunch of nearly useless crap in it) at an auction several years back that contained about 15 Kodak canisters of film. I got tired of looking at them and was ready to throw them out and thought, eh, I could just throw out the film and use the all yellow metal canisters for something. Then I thought, heck, I'll do a little research, maybe the film is worth something on ebay. After doing some research I realized that the film wasn't new, it was used and that these particular kinds of film (Plus-X PX 135) was discontinued in 1969. That was an eye opener. Heck, I could have previously unknown Woodstock photo's. Kaching. That's why I'm here researching how to develop my own. Can't really see entrusting previously unknown photos of the JFK assassination to some other film developer. Thanks.

4:01 this is the highest ever that Willem ever raise his hands 😂

Thank you for the tutorial 💙 I want to ask how many time can you reuse the 3 solutions?

Good job man!

IT WORKED!

Damn Willem, I’m releasing a video about the same topic on Friday geared more towards beginners. Now everyone’s gonna think I’m copying you. Sick video though, love you man. 😂

This is 100% a better tutorial than my version

I really thought it'd be way more complicated than this! we don't develop colour at my university so i just assumed it was really annoying but it literally seems the same as b&w just being more mindful of temperature

Great video! I'm more of a rotary development man myself, find the inversion a little messy.

Ayy love your videos man

I love your vids bro thank you
