In simple terms, the one-shot developer converts the exposed silver halide crystals into black metallic silver. The stop bath is technically not absolutely required if the film is perfectly exposed. It's purpose is to arrest development, and it can be reused. It has the added benefit of prolonging the acid based fixer by removing all traces of the alkaline based developer. The fixer, which is also acidic, removes undeveloped silver halide. It can also be reused. The wetting agent used in the rinse softens the water to promote drying without leaving water spots. The purpose of the rinse stage is to remove chemical residue.
As in the specific names or a brand? I like to use Diafine. Real easy to use and you can re-use it many times.
well you can use black and white film and develop them using a regular camera. basically just load your camera with black and white film if it is that kind of camera.
There are pluses and minuses for each venue. Sometimes the simpleness of black and white outperforms any color print and vice versa. I simply enjoy the old historic black and white photographs ... there are (I think) 52 shades between total white and total black, which make this kind of photography so very wonderful in itself.

In film, expose for bright. Surrounding areas fall off into darker shadows. If they don't quite reach black, use more sensitive film to extend its range or lower your white setting.

The first black and white film was the very first film ever made: Roundhay Garden Scene
Yes.

The first Godzilla film in 1954 was a black and white film .
Initially in 1960 this was a partly colour film; length wise 85% black & white and 15% coloured. In 2004 this was technically redeveloped as complete colour film.
When developing film what does the developer do to develop the film?
