I've thinking a lot about how I am going to process 4 x 5 sheet film. Developing film in the complete dark isn't something that attracts me, mainly be cause I am 100% convinced not beeing able to produce negs that show a somewhat u niform development. I am a beginner of course, but I trust myself much more usin g a daylight method. I've a Jobo CPE processor, and I am thinking about buying a Jobo tank + reel for developing 6 sheets. Finding second hand is difficult with Jobo equipment, specially tanks for sheetfilm, at least here in the Netherlands . Because the Jobo stuff is so teribly expensive I've some questions; a) is it s ufficient to buy the tank and reel only, or must I buy the additional guiding a ccessory plus 4x5 template according to their brochure. Is it possible to skip t hese items because it costs another $150. b) In the Jobo brochure; under the characteristics of the tank it is stated 6/27 0 ml; does this mean you only need 270 ml for 6 sheets? c) Are there other daylight products wich are less expensive? d) what are the experiencies using Jobo tank sheet development in combination wi th the CPE machine?
