Comments about Ilford Galerie Premium Lustre Paper (5.0x7.0" - 50 Sheets):
I am printing with a Epson 3880. I did a test with a photo that has intense color and also shadow details with color in the shadows. The papers I tested are Epson Luster, Moab Exhibition Luster 300 and the Ilford Premium Lustre. The Ilford has at least half a stop or maybe more of shadow detail than the Moab with the Epson in the middle or maybe even closer to the Moab. One reason is that Ilford is supplying a much much better color profile. I will use Ilford from now on. The luster surfaces of all three are pretty much the same.

Comments about Ilford Galerie Premium Lustre Paper (5.0x7.0" - 50 Sheets):
I bought this paper (note, Galerie "Premium" Lustre) as replacement for Galerie Smooth Lustre, which seems to have been discontinued. It's more expensive and only as good. Moab Lasal exhibition luster 300 is whiter and, on my Epson R3000 with Ultrachrome K3 inks, yields slightly better looking prints.
Comments about Ilford Galerie Premium Lustre Paper (5.0x7.0" - 50 Sheets):
I have used canon Pro Platinum,but I love the Luster photo paper with it's colors and luster surface to be just what I was looking for.
My printer is a canon iP4700 which I also like.
I purchased both 5x7 and 8.5x11.
