INTRODUCTION TO LABORATORY PROCEDURES
As a photographer, you are required to perform a variety of tasks in the
photographic laboratory.
These tasks range from preparing chemicals to
processing film and paper, contact and projection printing, print finishing,
quality control measures, color film and print processing, copy photography,
and portrait photography. Due to the length and depth of these topics, they
are discussed individually in separate subcourses.
If you are an amateur photographer or planning to take up photography as a
hobby, the information contained in this course will help you produce a
professional quality print.
It is common knowledge in the field of
photography that the work done in the lab can make or break a photographer.
So it is very important that you learn everything you can about lab
procedures.
Knowing the characteristics and limitations of film and
developers will allow you to make the right choices when shooting an
assignment.
