Efke's Direct Positive Paper

[RalphLambrecht]

...Another interesting note is this stuff polarizes when attempting to shoot with flash, will post some results of that unique characteristic...

Interesting, that's exactly what happens with the new Ilford direct-positive paper as well. I thought my test went pear-shaped when I first saw it.

Just ordered some! Thanks for the link! I am going to test out many options for my next series of work, this stuff made my polaroid dilemma into an ilford win, I am quite happy to test out these new products.

I just saw on freestyle Efke Direct Positive Paper, in RC or Single weight fiber.
Seems very interesting.
Anyone tried it ?
