peer agreement (net): +5(photographic) developer/developing solution Explanation: n the processing of photographic films, plates or papers, the photographic developer (or just developer) is a chemical that makes the latent image on the film or print visible. It does this by reducing the silver halides that have been exposed to light to elemental silver in the gelatine matrix. As a generalisation, the longer a developer is allowed to work, the greater the degree of reduction of the silver halide crystals to silver and therefore the darker the image. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_developer http://www.gameboomers.com/wtcheats/pcAa/Lost Sword of Toled... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 mins (2012-12-01 20:37:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The Constituents of Developer Solutions Developers generally consist of four kinds of chemicals: The Developing Agent The Preservative The Accelerator or Alkali The Restrainer Occasionally, other chemicals, mainly buffers, are added. The action of any developer is a function of how each of these kinds of chemicals is combined. Many developing formulas have the same chemicals in them, but by varying the proportions, widely varying results can be achieved http://www.michaelandpaula.com/mp/PDFs/Developers_An_Intro.P... Of these, the developing tank is the most important. The tank keeps the film in total darkness, yet its top incorporates channels through which you can fill it with processing solutions. Inside, a special spiral ensures the solutions reach every part of the film surface. The most useful measuring cylinders are 50ml, for measuring chemicals, and either 300ml or 600ml for making up solutions. http://www.ilfordphoto.com/Webfiles/200629163442455.pdf |
