    Controlling the Development Process Development is the chemical process that makes an image appear on exposed photographic material. You must control the development process to ensure that the processed medium will have the density you expect it to have based on the exposure settings you used. Development Variables to Control Development of the photographic image is affected by: The length of time the photographic material is in the developer,...
