Thanks Simon, you kept us posted and it's back as predicted.

Excellent! I'm looking forward to having a play with some of this paper in the near future.

Good news. I don't think many of us ever thought that Ilford would fail to re-start this product. It was always a question of when and not if.

Ah! The POSITIVE news you were looking for!

MartinP · Jun 3, 2015

Well done to all concerned! This product re-production most likely involved everything from negotiations between lawyers, to forecasting and costing of production, sourcing and testing, as well as coating the stuff. Not a trivial undertaking.

Now I just have to remember to ask for 9,2mm Delta100 bulk, early enough for the special products requests next year! Minox-en all over the world are waiting

please pardon my ignorance, but could i use this paper to enlarge B&W slides?

This paper seems to be high contrast, so your mileage may vary depending on your slides' contrast. Some flashing may help to reduce excessive contrast in the prints.

Simon, can we expect this new manufacture to be identical to the previous?
In terms particularly of contrast, say ... ?

Pioneer · Jun 3, 2015

That is awesome news Simon. I am very close to running out of 8x10 and have been hoping that I could get some 11x14 somewhere. Now the problem has been resolved.

Ko.Fe. · Jun 3, 2015

Very important news to me. I missed it from first run and have to use regular paper instead in my 4x5. I hope it will make it to BH.

Hatchetman · Jun 3, 2015

Anyone have any examples of their work on this paper to share here?

ParkerSmithPhoto · Jun 3, 2015

(there was a url link here which no longer exists) I made using DPP about two years ago. Preflashed, it's quite a unique look.

I'd have to dig through my notes but I believe this paper is around ASA 3, if my rudimentary calculations were correct.

winger · Jun 3, 2015

Yay! I didn't get around to trying it the first time, so I can't wait. I have a newish pinhole I can try it with, too.

Gerald C Koch · Jun 3, 2015

Too slow to be of use to me. I miss the Kodak product that could be used to make prints from color slides.

SMBooth · Jun 3, 2015

Maybe they will start on that next Gerald. Would be nice.

I'd like to see a version on RC paper. So that street portraits would then become practical (given the extended drying time required of fiber paper).

Very impressive! The Parker Smith example also.

You mean in black and white? I don't recall that paper unless one could reversal process Panalure, which might have been possible.

But if there were a panchromatic version of normal contrast for that it would be very cool.

Or do you mean type R color paper for color prints from slides? I miss that too.

What would happen if you tried to print a color slide with this paper?

Probably odd tones depending on the colors in the scene (I'm assuming this paper is not red sensitive?) and maybe a sort of grainy look where some colors don't expose the paper resulting in "holes" among the image, that look like grain, a bit. At least I've seen that trying to print color negatives on regular paper and it would make sense.

Hi Parker, that's a beautiful portrait. Fitting the Pictorialism period around 1900. Something I like to try myself.
I never preflashed before. Can you tell me how you did this with DPP?
Thanks.
