Now you have to process your film Lay out the chemicals in front of you: a film developer, a stop bath, and a fixer with hardener, and a hypo eliminator bath.   make sure everything is at the right temperature in order to get the best negative possible. Now you must pour developer onto the the film so that you can develop it. leave it in their for the appropriate time. No you must put running water on it so that you can stop development this is known as a stop bath. After this is done you then must fix the film so that you can see you photgraph after you fix the film you must let it sit in cold water for five minutes then you must remove appearance of white stains by using hyper-o eliminater. then you have a final wash, hang the film, and let it dry!
