Comments about Ilford Multigrade IV RC Deluxe MGD.44M Black & White Variable Contrast Paper (8 x 10", Pearl, 250 Sheets):
I am a college student and do my own prints for assignments. This paper is great to work with. My prints come out looking crisp and clean.If great quality paper is what you are in search of, look on further cause this does the job.Of course, I can find it a bid cumbersome to carry around the box when I have to print, but that is simply because this is the slightly larger box of this paper. (There is a 200pg option)

Comments about Ilford Multigrade IV RC Deluxe MGD.44M Black & White Variable Contrast Paper (8 x 10", Pearl, 250 Sheets):
I STILL print my own B&W prints from my historic negatives. Even though these negs are 50 to 100 years old and challenge my printing skills, Ilford produces a consistantly GOOD product and makes it just a little easier to beat a Good image out of my horrific faded, stained, and fogged negatives !
