Just a quick question (or two or three or four) to throw out to the group;
if you were on an extended trip with a 4x5 camera, and were taking BW negs
on, let's say, TMax 100 during the day, removing them from film holders at
night and putting them in the dark boxes, what would be the maximum amount
of time you would allow yourself to do this before developing them?? I have
heard that once exposed, the film changes over a period of time until
developed and hence one should develop ASAP. Is this true? Can you really
discern a difference, or do you all bring your chemistry with you always?
(and combi tanks, etc.) Is there a more marked difference with larger negs
than, let's say, 35 mm? Could I even go three months without developing? I
guess I am asking this to see if it is opinion or if anyone has tested this
out (developed some right away, others later, and seen a difference).
