First, Thanks Atilla for the link to the Foma website.
All printing paper that I can see on sale is variable contrast. Can you get good old fashioned graded paper anymore?
Also If I MUST use Variable Contrast paper where can one get VC filters from? |

Very good information in this thread. If you do go with a VC paper with no filters it should be about equal to grade 3 paper. |

I didn't know that. I'd buy grade 3, it was my favourite. So, is all VC (unfiltered) grade 3? |

Actually, they told me that no filter = grade 2
At least, with Ilford RC multigrade paper.

Thanks Orio, confusion where VC papers are concerned I think, but at least I can get single grade if I want it. Thanks again |
