Yes, and you will find a lot of posts on this list about them all. A
very good article is here-

My results were similar and preferences the same.

I'll make this brief, the other post mauy appear. You should try them.
I have yet to see anything on them that rises to some magical level
and perhaps they don't have that in them or I haven't found it yet.
Frankly color has been more impressive than B&W so far, but I'm in my
first year with them...
They do not look exactly like a master silver print, big suprise, but
look orders of magnitude better than Premium Luster.
