Re: [Digital BW] Paul Roark - need your advice

2005-01-06 by John

Hello Paul,

If I decided to buy my friend's used C84, in your opinion which 
inkset (warm or neutral) should I get.

I prefer close to traditional darkroom type of B&W photo and from 
what I saw, they are mostly glossy type, am I right?

Thanks again.
