I can't remember if I posted this already...
Does anyone know how Agfa B/W Variable contrast paper
compares with Ilford and Kodak? Specifically, which filter values
should I be using: Ilford or Kodak? I'm using a Saunders LPL 670
enlarger with built in filters, and it has channels 1 and 2, for Kodak
and Ilford papers.
I couldn't find all the data to make a precise comparison on Agfa's
or Ilford's web sites - both seem to use magenta/yellow filtering, but
Kodak doesn't mention filter values on their site.
A few tests using Ilford values seem ok, but contrast seems to
build much faster than with Multigrade IV. ie: grade 3.5 looks more
like grade 4+
I just got some 11x14 packs at a good price, just wondering if
anyone has used Agfa paper...
