Chuck,

from when I did my own developing I seem to remember 'darkroom bags' - large
black velvet bags with built in gloves. You use the bag only to thread your
exposed film onto the developing tank spool in your Vanagon (RVC). All other
steps of the developing process can be done in daylight, as you of course
know. Hang your films to dry from the poptop and don't move to prevent dust.

As for printing... that's different. Maybe we can expand the noise reduction
thread to a light sealing thread?

Good luck,
Robin

OK...I must confess that I don't shot digital and most likely NEVER
WILL....I'm a Black and White camera guy...has anyone figured out a way to
develop B/W white film while underway/on the road...I'll be heading into
some pretty remote areas to do photography....please post your
ideas/recommendations here or send me an e-mail chuckphoto@earthlink.net

Thanks
Chuck
