Some of the older plastic developing tanks with adjustable reels have a setting for 116/616 film. See if you can find one on ebay. Lacking one of these you can develop the file by see-sawing it through a tray of developer. In total darkness unroll the film from the spool and remove the paper backing. Attach a film clip to each end and allow the film to assume a U-shaped curve. Place the middle of the film into the tray and alternately lower and raise one end so that all portions if the film come in contact with the developer. Continue to do this for the entire development time. Similarly for the stop bath and fixer. Leave the clips on and place the film in a large tray for washing. This was fairly standard practice years ago. It would be a good idea to practice this technique on an old roll of 120 film. -----Original Message----- From: pure-silver-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pure-silver-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Chuck .

I have a roll that I have been wanting to develop that I found in a camera that was given to me. I have not done anything with it to date as I do not have a reel to develop it on... Does anyone know where I could acquire a reel to accomidate 616 film? Thanks!
