Dear experten of the board,
I decided to start trying to develop B&W at home after having spent so much money with Ilfordlab.
I bought a online kit, a bottle of Tmax developer and Ilford fixer (I've been told the stopper is not necessary anymore), the first guinea pig has been a Delta 400 film I shot with my Z6.
So I checked online, 5 minutes to develop, 30 seconds stopping, 2 minutes for fixing, 5 minutes washing...everything sounded easy, and difficult at the same time, so I prepared about 300 ml of 4+1 mixture, used the Paterson tank and here there are the results:
It appears something has ruined the emulsion in a certain position of the film:
What was my error? Did I expose the film while loading it inside the tank? I still have another roll of Delta 3200 to develop and I would like to try tonight, but I don't want to repeat the same error.
