Adox Vario Classic VC FB

[ishutteratthethought]

Hello folks,
after seeing wolfgangs photos in the gallery i may have to give the adox vc a try.
i do have a question as far as in their product detail they recommend a dark red safe light only. i hate to have to buy a set of dark red safe lights just to try out this paper. wondering if anyone has tried this paper and used their current set-up of orangish type safelights also, any other comments on the paper as well would be welcomed. i see a place in hollywood that is now selling it.
thanks,
steve

Yes, just the other day I tried it with a Paterson orange safe light. I sensitised a sheet of paper then placed 5 coins on the paper, removing one every minute. All 5 coins showed clear fogging.

Just buy a red LED spotlight. A rather weak one. They last forever and are cheap.

I have not really started with this paper but tried to make a couple of test prints just before departing for Kabul, while packing up at the end of a session. I did not get round to making a print, but I did find out how slow this paper is.

Vario Classic can be used under red safelight only.

Kind regards,
