Darkroom equipment is essential for developing photographs from film. Key items include a developing tank, which holds the film and chemicals, and a changing bag that allows photographers to load film in complete darkness. Other important tools are trays for chemical baths, a thermometer to monitor temperatures, and a timer to track development times. In addition to these, a safelight provides dim illumination without exposing the film. A print washer is used to clean prints after development, while scissors and film clips help manage the film during the process. Together, these tools create a controlled environment for photographic development.
