Basically you need a developing tank, a large sink or tray to fill with
warm water (to set the tank in in order to control its temperature), a
thermometer, a set of chemicals, and a box of plastic slide mounts.
It's very cheap and simple to get started. Everything except the chemicals
and the slide mounts will also be applicable to processing other types
of film.

I think your ideal would be to look into the "Jobo" system as
a starter. The latest system would be to your advantage as you
can do the negs in the drum and the prints in the deep tank
slots. Or for larger prints go back to the drum (12-16 I think)
