Hi all

Just wondering if anyone knows where to get the EEM paper and some of the other matte papers commonly used for BW prints. PW on Hutt street have some sample swatches apparently so I will head into town to check them out but would like to try any others on your recommendations.

cheers

Isn't Enhanced Matte sold as Archival Matte in sheet form in Australia?

I think the Enhanced Matte name (which replaced Archival Matte as a name in the US after people questioned how "archival" it actually was) is only used here for some of the bigger rolls.

thanks for clearing that one up Dave..I had referenced a couple of US sites re BW printing and didnt realise the naming difference. :oops:

Hi Deb

I have been reading this series of articles in prepartion for attempting to print some decent BW pics by self. So much to learn but good fun doing so!

cheers
