RE: [Digital BW] Hahnemuhle options

2009-07-18 by Jim Doyle

Hey Gang
 
Yes Hahnemuhle is having an increase! That's for sure.. I see All types
of crazy stuff.. Big Flat Sheets Up So Much I cant even describe..I am
still trying to figure it out myself..
 
A 24 x 39 roll of HPR 308 is rising by 15 dollars If I remember correct.
But a 44 inch roll is only like 8.. while 8.5 x 11 sheets went down..
This is the most insANE THING I HAVE EVER SEEN..
 
No I just want you all to remember one thing  Hahnemuhle is a 39' foot
roll while Innova ( act is way better than 2 yrs ago) Museo & Canson all
are 50" feet
 
As a general broadcast if you want to go over your  product either email
or call me and you know I do my best for you guys & Gals...( some free
samples If Needed as Long as some pays shipping- Sheet Or two)
 
To me this is puzzling for sure just like it must be for all of you..
Not to mention way to much work!
 
Thanks Again to all of my awesome customers!~
 
Cheers
 
Jim Doyle

I've also started using Photographique--a beautiful paper, but I'm not 
seeing the similarity to HPR. To my eye Photographique is much whiter 
(no OBAs) and a bit softer . . . I'm using the K7 SE too. Guess I'll 
look into purchasing a custom curve.

Yes, their other papers are also quite nice but very expensive.
