Coil
Once the web of film is complete and ready to be developed, cargo / tail on a roll of film in a darkroom. This step involves the additional care as part of the film can not be developed if it is poorly loaded. A roll of film actually looks like a picture on a reel to rotate and the photographs that appear one after another on a movie screen as the form films shown in theaters long ago, or as the film reel of old Hollywood images as shown in movies today.
Basically, Rolls of film are used for holding the film securely to roll that can be properly developed once in the film processing tank. The cam is shaped like a spiral so that the film does not touch the surface and evenly spaced so that the free flow of chemicals and touch every part of the film. The reel should be dry as any sign of moisture makes loading difficult.
Film reels are available in plastic or steel and also in various sizes to fit different movies. Coils of steel are more durable, while the plastic ones are easier to handle by amateur photographers.

Film processing tanks
Once the film was loaded into the roll of film is developed using a light-tight container called film developing tank. The film has a tendency to damage if exposed to daylight during development, but with a film developing tank which can be developed in a setting of daylight at Therefore, these are also known as "tanks daylight. The various chemicals needed for the development of the photographs can be poured inside through the opening in the lid of the tank.
Similar to the rolls of film, film processing comes with storage tank of different varieties and sizes of reel to deal with both the 35 mm and 120 mm of the film. The varieties include stainless steel and plastic tanks. For beginners is advisable to use plastic tanks because they are cheap and easy to use. However, when the processing temperature should be controlled, only steel tanks steel can be used. In addition, a steel tank can be used either wet or dry unlike plastic tank where the film sticks and falls apart if the tank is wet.

- Prepare all the necessary equipment (tools, chemicals, etc.);
- Tail of the film on the roll of film in the darkness;
- Download the spool in the film processing tank sealed by a lid (once with security that includes the film can be easily developed in the light of day without ruins);
