I made the move a year ago to processing my own bulk loaded Tri-X B&W and I think that it is the way to go if one is serious about Photography and wants to save some money. The initial investment in a tank, light safe bag, chemicals and incedentals quickly pays for itself when one considers the expense of B&W development. With the additional purchase of a negative scanner one can make the digital move or you can just send away for the prints.(posted 8689 days ago)
