Highly versatile and well-suited for all traditional black and white printing needs, this box of 50 sheets of 9.5 x 12" Ilford MULTIGRADE RC Deluxe features a pearl 44M surface finish that has a more textured appearance than glossy paper to help reduce overwhelming surface reflections, yet still retains some reflectivity to achieve deeper black values for a longer apparent tonal scale. This Generation V paper features an updated emulsion with a more linear contrast profile that responds consistently and accurately to the full 00-5 range of Multigrade filters for fine tuning the look of prints. The paper also features a truly neutral base tint and responds especially well to different toning solutions for adjusting the final print color. The enhanced emulsion also affords deeper blacks along with enhanced mid-tone separation for greater flexibility when printing negatives of varying densities. Additionally, it is suitable for printing both conventional black and white negatives as well as chromogenic black and white negative films and the paper can be processed using standard black and white chemistry in either trays or using machine processors.

The pearl finish MG RC Deluxe renders tones and contrast beautifully. If you prefer a finish that mutes reflections yet retains excellent blacks this will work for you. It does take toning well. Many believe FB paper is the standard for fine art prints, but this paper well printed will rival the presentation of FB paper.
