I ran a fade test in my florescent light fader comparing Museo with Epson Archival Matte. The short summary is that Museo color shifts 10% less than Archival Matte, but fades 30% more. While EAM does a rather quick 2 unit (on the 256 scale) yellowing (which stabilizes there), Museo kept it's perfect white up to the 200 hour point that I ended the test. Because the color shifting is more noticeable than the fading, the Museo has a slight visual advantage from those two factors. Of course, it's 4% weaker blacks are a disadvantage in shots where that is an issue. Paul http://www.PaulRoark.com
