I have a "Calumet Changing Room" or tent and it's well made and feels huge when I'm inside using it.

I suggest you look for one of these; they are stored in a built-in fabric disk, like a reflector.

Good luck.

You mean something like THIS. 27" cube, huge by my estimation.

Or THIS. It comes with LED light so you can see better :cool:

I still use Photoflex changing tent (I don't know if they still make it) which is very similar to my first link above but arm sleeves are on the sides. Silver coating is peeling on mine, but still light tight after 15 years.

Yes, somewhat, but in a larger built-in disk form with a rubberized lining in the "room".

The arm sleeves are, iirc are on the sides

Between that, developer, stop and fix plus selenium and Photoflow, together with a large and small tank with reels in the format you'll be shooting add a quality, changing bag, in your camera bag, you're all set for a longer road trip than just a weekend.

IMO.

I use a Harrison Jumbo, but there are cheapy versions from China on ebay... no clue if they are a quality product, though.
 
If you could find a Shadow box, grab it. I prefer them much more than the Harrison's. For one reason, they don't get sticky. (I know, don't store them rolled up). But, the Shadow box has interior pockets which help keeps things organized inside the tent. I found that valuable when doing sheet film that you want to keep them aligned with field notes. Here is one that Bob was selling, you can get a good look at it from his thread. https://www.photrio.com/forum/threads/fs-shadow-box-film-changing-tent.142050/

That would be more useful than the Changing Room I suggested for loading Grafmatic 45s.
