일포드 멀티그레이드 RC 디럭스 페이퍼 - 펄 - 8x10

The pearl surface gives prints a subtle sheen that really makes the blacks pop without distracting reflections. Exposure times feel consistent across the contrast filters, which saved me a lot of test strips.

Finally, a variable contrast paper that actually holds detail in the highlights without burning in forever. The pearl finish gives prints a really nice, subtle sheen that looks great for portraits.

I've been printing in my darkroom for about a year and this RC paper is the easiest to handle—it dries flat and the contrast filters respond exactly as expected. The 5th gen emulsion seems to hold finer detail in the highlights than the older box I finished last week.
