Re: [Digital BW] Re: Eboni Variable Tone updates

2016-04-06 by andrey@...

I tried the EbVT-generic-neutral curve on some Canson Rag Photographique 310gms last night with the Y limit set to 12 because of the 75% dilution ratio, and the Lab b values are mostly all less than 1, with the darkest tones in the mid to high 1s. The only thing I'll try to tweak is to get the 75% tone, which is around 1.7, below 1. The 90-100% tones can remain slightly warm for my tastes.

On a slightly warmer paper like the Epson Ultra Premium Presentation Paper Matte, the Lab b values are higher and in the mid 2s. But raising the limit to 15 got most of them down well below 2.

Thanks again for all your help!
