JOBO Drum Expert
Product Summary:
The 3000 series Expert Drums are designed to process sheet film with the highest quality possible.
(Please read that sentence again, it's the most important sentence on this page). It doesn't matter
what system of development you're contemplating; hand processing, rotary processing, hanger
processing, or any other method -- using the Expert Drums will yield beautifully even edge-to-edge
development.
Key Features
Utterly random
It normally isn't a good idea for a company who sells photographic equipment to declare that their stuff
provides random processing. After all, we all want consistency while developing our film. The reason we
state that processing with the Expert Drums is "utterly random" is because the unique design of the drums
dares the chemistry to try to develop a pattern. It can't! What this means is you won't get streaks or spots,
and the density will be completely uniform.
How can I start using the Expert Drums!?
The Expert Drums fit on the JOBO CPA-2, CPP-2, and ATL-2x00 (they don't fit on the CPE-2 or ATL-
1000/1500). (One interesting point about the Expert Drums: We hear time and time again that people
purchase a processor to get to use the Expert Drums. We understand that's like saying people buy a luxury
car because the like the tires that fit it. But it's true!)
