Re: Lyson SG - My experience

2002-07-25 by Keith Cooper

Hello

I'd echo the comments about paper choice and metamerism. A Lyson dealer here
in the UK sent me a sample set of all of their papers to test, so I added
the odd few sheets of other stuff I had laying around and wandered about my
house with a collection of small prints. With the range of lighting (north
skylight/south sun/fluorescent/various tungsten) I found that the Lyson
papers were indeed much better. I use quite a bit of their 265g premium
lustre (aka Photo Satin) ... of course, having Lyson's profiles for the
paper and my 1160 probably helped :-))

As for the Quad black inks, they were just too coloured in typical viewing
conditions, and I hadn't got the nerve to tell customers that they should
really only view the prints during the day...


bye for now
