Darkroom

CIC maintains a small publicly accessible darkroom. It is fully equipped (trays, tanks, film dryer, light box, drying racks and enlargers from half frame to 13 x 18 cm). Access is available to professionals and amateurs alike for developing film and printing negatives. We can supply basic chemicals, photo paper and the help of a professional instructor if required.
