International Orders*Fomatone MG Classic Fiber Paper is a photographic paper with variable contrast in warm tone that is particularly suitable for the portrait photography and for working in s. c. retro style.
| Process Type | Fomatone MG is recommended to be processed by hand (in trays), but processing by machine is possible as well. The processing of Fomatone MG does not differ from other Foma papers. Any usual developers can be used, but the Fomatol LQN and Fomatol P baths are particularly recommended and while these give rather brown-green tone, a brown tone can be obtained using the Fomatol PW developer that has been developed particularly for this material. |
| Base Type | Baryta coated fiber based paper |
| Tone | The paper It is made using silver chlorobromide emulsion that gives a silver image tone shading from neutral to mildly warm. The paper features a very rich halftone scale from shining white to deep black. |
| Weight | Double weight, 180g/m2 |
| Contrast | The contrast can be varied from extra soft (grade O) to hard grade (4). Fomatone MG is sensitized in blue and green spectral areas and therefore the contrast is controlled using yellow and magenta filters at exposure. If only blue sensitized emulsion part is exposed (magenta filters), the contrast will be increased and if the green sensitized emulsion part is exposed (yellow filters), the contrast will be lowered. |
| Surface Finish | Glossy surface |
| Safelight Compatibility | Working with Fomatone MG the same safelights can be used as with other usual papers, i. e. is yellow-green, orange or red lights (filter such as Osram Duka 50, Agfa G7, Kodak OC, Durst Sanat, Ilford SL 2, Ilford 902). |
