Re: [Digital BW] Re: Matte paper dmax 2.05

Sorry that 1 got away from me. Obviously as cone said it was loaded with dye  
and didn't have much fade resistance but it was fine behind glass and  
moderately lit areas. As paul said the results weren't as dramatic as you  
might think but it did help in images that required a lot of shadow  
separation.

2.05 DMax on art paper? Wow, I didn't think that possible Paul! Do the  
blacks have slight sheen to them, or are they perfectly matte?

The dmax on the thoroughly dry and cured HPR with Noritsu dye is now 2.05  
(Lab L = 8.06).  I always wondered if one could even see the difference  
between a 1.75 and 2.05 dmax.  Under good lighting I can.
