Re: Some basics Please (Part II)

["Gary" <misman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Developing my own is not feasable as I have no room in my tiny apartment that
is even remotly considered dark. I would think that this would at least require
some place very dark that you could transfer the film from the canister to the
developer's solution. As it stands now I do think that I will get some fogging
due to the fact that I have to load the film in my closet but this may be only
on the first few frames. I guess I am going to have to do a bit of shopping
around for a place that has developed IR film, If what you say is true about
some processors using IR to find the sprockets.
