I've got one of Mark's UltraChrome prints, and I have to say, I think it's just lovely. Sure, I could probably carry it around and compare it to stuff trying to find something with blacker blacks, but just looking at it, it looks great, and that's what I plan to do with it. dMax isn't the end of the world. It might make a print a little more snappy, but it isn't going to make the image any better, and that's what it's about, isn't it? Of course, I can't wait to hear Mark's reaction to Robert's coated prints, sounds very promising. -Jason -----Original Message----- From: Mark Tucker [mailto:mtucker508@...] Maybe in the next go-round, they'll deal with the matte blacks. For me, I'm happy with what I've got. Yes, it could probably be better; I just make a habit of never looking at my old MIS dye prints from the 7000; that usually takes care of it. I'm a "coater" kinda guy, so I'm very curious to see what Robert's come up with. Even my homebrew OleoPasto helps the blacks a great deal. I could continue with that and be happy, but I want to see Robert's version, so I can tell people that I coat my prints with "a Mayer rod"; I'll kinda raise one eyebrow when I say that, and then give a sniff.
