Zebra delite processing tank Larger format provides an innovative processing solution to photographers that combine convenience, efficiency and reliability. The zebra delite tank enables the delite processing of large-rebellious films, plates and photographic paper, without the need for a traditional dark setup.
Over the years, large-form photographers have wrestled with the complications of developing their own negatives. Trains, saffronites, and hours spent in full darkness are often caused by inconsistent results and high level disappointment. With the zebra daylight processing tank, all this changes. This modular, the rugged system provides a spontaneous, light-tang design that eliminates the need for dark processing, at any time, provides photographers with freedom to develop their work anytime.
“Only two weeks in us Kickstarter campaign For the Zebra Dellite Processing Tank, we are thrilled to share that we have crossed 900% funding, with more than 400 backers supporting the project from all over the world, ”Zebra shared. Its blog.
“This huge response confirms what we have seen growing for years: the analog photography community is alive, rich, and eager for devices that remove unnecessary obstacles while holding hands, the process of touch loves all of us. We are deeply grateful to every pledge, message and encouragement. Helping photography. “
A light-tang revolution
The concept behind the zebra delite tank is misleading: what if only photographers of time needed darkness during the loading process? The solution is a specificly engineer tank that allows users to insert chemicals inside and out without bringing the film to light, ensuring chemical distribution.
The design of the tank has a special light maze within the lid, which allows to be quick and clean and empty from both sides. This innovation eliminates the need to rotate or reproduce the tank during use during preventing light leaks that can ruin a batch of the film. The lighting of the tank is further enhanced by a rubber gasket sealing that ensures a safe closed off without the requirement of additional mechanical parts.
With these characteristics, the zebra daylight processing tank not only streamlines the process, but also improves the quality of the final product. Even preventing unwanted artifacts from appearing on the film by distribution of chemicals and avoiding disturbance during movement, ensure a smooth, clean result with every development.
Designed for flexibility
One of the standout aspects of the zebra delite processing tank is its versatility. Available in three dedicated sizes, 4 × 5 ″, 5 × 7 ″, and 8 × 10 ″, small sheets in the tank are a wide range ranging from film to large plates and paper negative. In addition, modular holders make it possible to process custom formats such as 9x12cm, entire plate and 18x24cm with future options to be released.
Photographers who work with the 8 × 10 ″ film will especially appreciate an extended capacity of 8 × 10 tanks, which can process an eight sheet of 5 × 7 film in a 4 × 5 film’s 16 sheets or a single run. This feature enables users to save time, chemicals and energy, especially when processing large versions of the film together.
Zebra delite kit
In addition to the Zebra Dellite processing tank, Zebra Zebra is excited to introduce a light-tight storage box, designed to simplify the film organization in the region. Whether it is shooting or traveling at the place, keeping separate and protected sheets of the film exposed and unauxposed sheet is a challenge that faces many photographers. The Zebra film Safe provides a smooth and practical solution, which features two different compartments to store both types of films safely.
The film Saff’s magnetically safe lid allows for sharp, trouble-free handling-even with gloves-it makes ideal for photographers who require quick access to their materials while working in challenging conditions. The lids with textured ensure that users can distinguish between the exposed and unaffected film, the visibility can eliminate the risk of mix-up when limited.
Available as part of the zebra delite film kit, Zebra film Safe is an ideal companion for photographers on the move, offering peace of mind and facilitates for anyone working in the region. With worrying about film envelopes or film contamination, no one is more tarnished-straight straight, efficient storage that keeps your analog workflow systematic and worry-free.
“With tanks, we have also launched a full development solution designed for photographers on the move,” Zebra says.
“Each kit includes a zebra delite processing tank, a film changing bag, and our new zebra film Saffy-e-Rugged, Light-Tight Storage Box, which is safely exposed and unexpected sheets in the area. The film safe has two magnetic compresses with the textured lids in Safe, so you can feel different, so you can feel different.”
Field-testing difference
The Zebra delite processing tank did not come on the scene overnight. In the last one year, Zebra’s team’s team, photographers and analog enthusiasts have tirelessly tried to refine the design by conducting several prototypes and field tests. The result is a tank that provides reliable, coherent performance, even in the most challenging environment. Photographers have already expressed their satisfaction with the ability of the tank, which is accompanied by the ability to handle large-form materials without the risk or risk of contamination associated with traditional development methods.
Photographer Lars V., a documentary from Sweden. Increased the impact of the tank: “I processed 16 sheets of 4 × 5 film in the zebra 8 × 10 tank – no dark, no spread, just beautiful results. This is the most convenient analog tool that I have ever used.” For many people, without the need for a dedicated dark, the ability to develop the film at this step, or at home is a game changer.
Precise and portability
Portability has been an important idea in the design of the zebra delite tank. Durable, manufactured from chemical resistant plastic, the tank is still rugged, which is capable of understanding the rigor of on-location work. Its compact size and efficient chemical use, under 0.5L for 4 × 5 film, 1L for 5 × 7, and under 2l for 8 × 10, ensure minimal waste by granting full-form compatibility. Photographer can take the tank on the field trip with you or use it in a house setup without easily excessive storage space or complex workflow.
The tank also includes a custom funnel for easy, spill-free filling, and the straight assembly and the decisori process cleansing an air. These design elements have been added with a strong construction that can tolerate frequent use, ensuring that the zebra daylight processing tank is a long -term investment for any serious investment about analog photography.
Innovation by a community
The development of the zebra delite processing tank is directed by a community of emotional analog photographers. The reaction of the real users has played an important role in shaping the tank into the refined product. From the initial concept to the final prototype, the project is designed by the community and for it. Examitants around the world have shared their experiences, appreciating the ability to give high quality results without system performance, ease of performance, use of use, and general complications of traditional processing methods.
Alison P., a dry plate artist from the United Kingdom, highlights the modular system as a standout feature: “I am waiting for something like this. Finally, a solution that works in a wider day light for dry plates and modern films. The modular system is genius.”
A new era for analog photography
Zebra has promised that Daily processing tank Just more than one tool; It represents the future of analog photography. By making large-forming film processing accessible, practical and stress-free, the tank brings new possibilities for photographers working in both traditional and modern workflows. Whether in a home studio, on a remote landscape shoot, or on a foreign trip, the zebra delite processing tank provides flexibility and reliability that every large-form photographer needs to flourish in the analog world.
With zebra delite tanks, the darkroom is no longer an obstacle. Instead, tank-based design is an ideal mix of innovation, functionality and simplicity, designed to meet the needs of today’s on-a-go analog photographers.
