It is a good kit. Some people say they don't like the blix and would rather have the fix and bleach seperate. I actually live 20 mins away from the manufacturer of these chemicals. I spoke to the owner and he said blix really isn't different than the bleach and fix. He told me the most important part to get on is the developing temp. After that you can be off and not have any major problems. Just follow the manufacturers specs. It was really fun to develop the e-6 negatives.

Sounds interesting as it is much harder to get E-6 done. And I live in the San Francisco area, my closest E-6 processor of 120 is Wal-Mart and they send to Fuji Labs (2 weeks, but cheap), but how long will that last?

I will give it a shot and report back. I have a good local 2 hr E6 lab but it is $6 per roll. If I cna do it at home for 1/3 as much it is worth it.
