Hi all. Has anyone had experience with this paper for paper negatives? I've been told that the medium weight is advantageous over other double weight papers (i.e. shorter printing exposure times) and also that the grades give better and consistent negative contrast control over variable contrast papers. My question to those who've used it is what grade to you typically prefer and for what reasons? It would be fantastic if someone could post some images of their paper negs made with this paper to help illustrate the contrast differences between the grades.
I plan to test grades 1, 2, and 3. I believe 0, 4, and 5 have been discontinued. Does anyone know of a good source for grades 1, 2, and 3? The local shop only carries 4 (don't know how that is) and I only see grades 2 and 3 on B&H. Freestyle has nothing.
Thanks as usual for the help!
