Re: [Digital BW] Fine B&W with Nanochrome

2006-03-06 by lestihor

With incandescent lighting there is a very slight purplish cast to 
the black, in fluorescent lighting it is dead neutral, in direct 
sunlight it is neutral with very slight magenta in shadows. None of 
the metamerism is very strong or objectionable and the overall 
impression is very pleasant.
