It provides a wide contrast range, with possible results ranging from ranging from ultra-hard to extra-soft contrast. This makes it possible to get good prints from negatives with extremely low or extremely high contrast. An excellent alternative to Ilford’s MGIV RC Pearl paper.

Fomatone MG Classic Warm Tone 133 (Velvet): A beautiful variable-contrast fibre based warm tone double weight enlarging paper on a light cream coloured base.
