Summary: A ery rich paper. Contrast is a bit harder than other papers like Galerie for the same contrast grade. One way to get "between grades" in a sense.
Strengths: Rich, neutral tone, clear whites.
Weaknesses: Difficult to find locally -- a mail-order type product for me.
Similar Products Used: Ilford Galerie, Arista, Bergger
Summary: Excellent got certain tasks. It handles dense negs very well. Those looking for a paper with a great imapct and a cooler balance will appreciate it, especially after selenium toning. I prefer it for certain landscape/studio applications as I prefer a slightly warmer tone for my general work.
Strengths: Rich tones, very neutral base.
Weaknesses: can be a little too "cold" for some subjects; difficult to print thinner negs.
