Although there has been a huge move towards digital cameras and mobile phones with cameras because of their obvious convenience, there is no doubt that prints produced in the darkroom still yield the best photographic quality. There is still a large contingent of photographers who prefer to develop and print their own images and it is for this reason that this book has been written. The book is based on over 20 years experience as a professional darkroom printer for black and white and colour hand printing. It is written and published by me and is not available anywhere else. The book contains no fluff or padding - just hard information. It tells you why things go wrong, how to avoid the problem in the future and how to cure the fault. It consists of a mass of reference information collected over this time and is designed to provide instant information in the darkroom whenever answers are required quickly. It is a book written by a darkroom professional for darkroom enthusiasts. Here is one of the many topics in the book that you may find useful: If filter adjustments are made that result in all three filters being used, an element of neutral density is formed which reduces the amount of light reaching the paper. This does nothing to change the colour of the light. It just increases the exposure time unnecessarily. It is recommended that neutral density be removed to keep exposure time to a minimum. Colour head is set to: 70 Y 50 M 10C Remove. 10 Y 10 M 10C Result. 60 Y 40 M 0C Use this result for your new filter settings to reduce exposure time Contents a??
