All for analogue photography!



The ARS-IMAGO Story

ARS-IMAGO was born in 2009, at a time when analog photography seemed to be at a standstill. Their choice, even at that time, was against the trend. Adopting a kind of resistance to the digital frenzy, they looked at photography as a handcrafted, reasoned and conscious process. Today they work to remember that photography is first and foremost matter, to be held in one's hand, flipped through an album, hung in a frame, or jealously preserved in a wallet. They have always believed in the extraordinary value of a photograph, and it is from this that they have built their work and their identity. They work to make the entire traditional photographic journey simple to access, and strive to give you a unique and personal experience with respect to the way you do photography. This is because, first and foremost, they are photographers. They are intimately familiar with the techniques and tools of shooting, the characteristics of film, and the finish of photographic printing paper. Whether you are an amateur or a professional, ars-imago is ready to help you on everything you need in your work. For more than fifteen years at ars-imago you will find all the latest in traditional photography. Darkroom equipment, exhibitions and events, used photography, workshops and laboratories. This is because ars-imago is more than a store, it is a workshop, cultural and professional space that rests its foundation on our commitment to photography.





The Lab-Box


The Lab-Box Daylight Developing tank allows users to develop their own 35mm or 120 film in full daylight, without the need for a darkroom or changing bag, and is therefore the perfect introduction to home processing.

Film Modules

The LAB-BOX tank features a multi-format reel that can accomodate both 135 and 120 film for ultimate flexibility. Only a single roll of film can be processed at a time with the tank. The tank comes with the 135 Module attached. It can be removed and replaced with the 120 Module, available separately.

Agitation Options

Both intermittent and continuous agitation are possible with the Lab-Box, depending on how much solution is poured into the tank, allowing for both experimentation and fine-tuning of your process to best suit your needs. The internal reel is turned by the included agitation knob, but an accessary Crank is available for those who see themselves using constant agitation often.

Design


The Lab-Box was designed by VIVO Design Studio in Rome, Italy. Following a careful test-and-review process, ars-imago has been able to optimize the final size of the tank and simplify its construction, in order to deliver a tool that is both sturdy and easy to use. The specialized team created detailed technical drawings, transforming them into 3D models and making use of all the latest digital manufacturing technologies.
