Fotos entwickeln?

Doofe Frage, ist mir gerade in den Kopf gestiegen, während ich ein Film angeschaut habe.

Sagt mal, warum wurde/wird beim entwickeln der Fotos rotes Licht verwendet? Warum nicht grün oder blau oder warum überhaupt im geschlossenen dunklen Raum (Dunkelkamera)? Das die Fotos dann chemisch in einer Flüssigkeit getränkt werden und dann aufgehängt werden müssen, habe ich auch verstanden.

Also ich weiß, dass das Foto belichtet werden muss um sich zu entwickeln. Damals zB musste man über 10 Minuten (glaube ich) stehen, damit das reflektierte Licht sich durch die Linse auf dem Format/Bildkartusche projizieren kann.

Ich bin ein Kind der Ende 70er und mein Vater hatte mich damals in den 80er mit der Polaroid Sofortbildkamera fotografiert. Dort wird ja auch kein rotes Licht verwendet und nicht in irgendetwas getränkt. Das Foto wurde geschossen und man hat gewartet bis das Bild sichtbar war….

Ich weiß, Fragen über Fragen und sicherlich auch total falsch erklärt und verstanden ^^ Aber, dafür habe ich euch ja 🙂

Danke im Voraus für die Antworten und bleibt mir gesund!

Gruß Sonic

The red light is used because the photo paper in the red area has a sensitization gap. It does not respond to this red light. There is also an awareness gap in the yellow area, so that sodium steam lamps can be used. However, this does not apply to all photo materials. An example of this is the panchromatic films that are usually used for recording in the camera. Also colour material which should also be red or as negative material blue. Such material must be handled in complete darkness.

You also have a developer in the instant picture material. It is a paste in a small plastic bubble. When the film is pushed out of the camera, place this plastic bubble and the developer paste is distributed over the light-sensitive layer with the aid of the rollers through which the film is drawn. During the winding, either the later image carrier blocks the light or the developer paste itself. Dyes are released which diffuse to the surface and give the image.

There no red light is used and not soaked into anything.

It will be for him, the chemi is in the thick part of the polaroid and is pressed into the photo while the image is ejected. Since the chemical processes at Polaroids are never completely stopped, after a few years these images also change quite in color. Many old Polaroids have a brown/red color engraving.

Says why was/is used in developing the photos red light?

This only worked with old orthochromatic black and white film, because it mainly reacted with green and blue light. The problem with this film was that he was terrible for skin tones. This is why panchromatic film is used today, and it can no longer be developed completely in the red light chamber, but only in a light sealed tank.

An instant image camera is already a less modern compared to the correct illumination.

The pictures that were shot at the time fell on the film and burned the picture in the film. (If the film had fallen out and/or hit light, the film was over). In the chemical process in the dark chamber the film was developed and no longer susceptible to the sunlight.

The red light also impairs the film a little (only not as strong as yellow or the like) so it was never very bright, just a little light you need to see what you do.

Immediate image cameras already develop the photos in the camera and small fun fact, you don’t have to shake the photos with modern cameras, which in no way affects the speed of development.

And technically correct isn’t what I wrote, I don’t know. But it fits. If anyone who has more idea what to complain about, please do not complain in the comments but supplement, thank you.

What is a habit that has become natural, but it is not supposed to be done.

That was the light that had the least uv share.

UV light would have exposed the negative further.
