The Film Developing Cookbook is an up-to-date manual for modern film
development techniques. While the original Darkroom Cookbook focused entirely
on photographic chemicals and formulae, this book concentrates on films, their
characteristics, and the developers each requires for maximum control of the
resulting image.
The Film Developing Cookbook specifically
addresses the difficult subject of T-grain film development. It includes rarely
found information on film development and the nature of film developers. The
authors take bold and controversial stances on many widely accepted film
developing dogmas. They tackle many of the widely accepted "myths" of
film development. They reject the trend toward `scientific evaluation' of films
and developers in favor of the photographer developing a personal aesthetic
without relying exclusively on densitometry or H&D curves.
