This is a me too post

Very much looking forward to this paper, hope there will be a splitgrade calibration too (or the old Agfa one will match ;-)

Sizes are fine for me, most of my printing will be 24x30 and 30x40 every now and then, would also prefer the 50 boxes, at least for 24x30.

No issues with hot-pressing, airdry only here.....

I am actually happy with the lighter paperweight, the heavy papers are quite a pain to get flat without hot-pressing them.

Formats

Therefore we plan to offer a limited range of formats from the first batches:
8x10", 11x14" and 20x24" in the US/UK and 24x30, 30x40, 50x60 in metric- Europe.

I would be interested in your comments on this idea.

Best regards,

Mirko

Mirko,

why not also 11"x14" for Europe mainland? it's just a format missing in the range.

Nevertheless congratulations on the achieved succes.

Last year at this time Juergen Heiland advised me to use the Agfa MCC 111 setting with a time offset of -0.4 stops for printing on Adox MCC 111 test sheets. I still had some Agfa MCC 111 left, printed on that until satisfied, then used the Adox version with -0.4 stop. Very, very close. I ended up using only 0.2 stop offset to achieve a perfect match.

This is great news! While I like Ilford too I originally started out with printing on Agfa paper and missed it when it went off the shelves. Great to see these are back available.

Is it only me, or is anybody else missing the 16x20"/40x50cm size? Going from 11x14 to 20x24 is a huge jump.

Arne, this is only temporary for the first batch in order to expediently bring product to market. Later batches will be cut to all the sizes listed here:

Note that 20x24 cuts to one 16x20 and two 8x10s.

We already decided on more formats.
We will cut 8x10, 11x14, 16,20, 20x24 Inches for the US market and
24x30, 40x50, 50x60 cm for Europe.

From the next productions we will also fill all other sizes.

Mirko,

why do you leave the 30x40 cm out of the Europe list and once again why not 11" x 14" for the European market. This is such a nice in between format.

Wonderful news, Mirko! Well done on this project to you and everyone involved.

Looks like the day is almost here...Freestyle has put this pre-order page up on their web site:

They say the paper is due in early September. Nice.

Gys,

there is no problem in offering Inch sizes in Europe. As a matter of fact we already do with MCP. The reason for the limited formats from the first production is simply the limited material available for now.

Best regards,

Mirko

Mirko,

Will this first batch will be available in the UK, or will UK residents need to order directly from Fotoimpex?

Tom.
