Hi, My eyes are falling out after reading all the discussions ( but am really really thankful for this site and everybody involved). Since I'm just starting in 4x5 I arbitrarily picked Fomapan 200 or Arista edu ultra 200 ( my understanding is that they are the same) to learn on as they are relatively inexpensive and I have to start somewhere.
My question now is- what chemicals to develop with? I understand that different chemicals produce various effects but at this beginning point I just need some easy to get and fairly straight forward ones that work well with this film and if possible would work with other films as I expand out, probably toward lower iso.
As of today I don't know what developing system I will end up using.
While I'm asking.... could you also recommend an inexpensive paper and corresponding chemistry for making contact sheets. Any advice- at least good advice will very much be appreciated. Thanks , Zack
