Good paper

This is good paper. I do agree as others have stated that the Ilford papers do give darker black tones. However, for hobbyists and students, the Arista paper is fine. If you need the best quality, go for the Ilford. However, I like the look of this paper and it seems to give a classic, imperfect, “film” look along with their films.
