I've always disliked the canvas texture.  To me, it's as annoying as the
glass reflections.  So, I'm interested in trying this version of the
product:

I think with canvas there is also an issue of how one displays it.  The
bare-bones, un-framed stretched canvas that one photographer in our gallery
uses, to me, does not say "fine art."  I personally like frames that are
more associated with paintings than B&W photography, but, again, a comment
I've heard is that they just don't say, "fine art" -- at least to some.
