Hi! I am an amateur photographer who just started pinhole photography. I use empty 135 film cans/containers as cameras. I cut b/w film and tape them in these cans. I also develop them inside these cans. The images are nice but I have heard of a processing method called PYRO. Perhaps anybody there knows about this. (Or whether it exists or not?) Thanks

You will find information on pyro in the Film and processing forum.

I have information about processing using the PMK (pyro-metol-kodalk) formula on my site: http://www.unblinkingeye.com. There is an article on mixing developers, as well as my times for most of the common films. The ultimate book resource is The Book of Pyro by Gordon Hutchings.
