I've never seen a Gen 4 black, but I can say it isn't as black as 
I'd like... I can get some improvement in Dmax by clipping the 
shadows, but my shadow separation is so good right now I'm willing 
to accept that trade-off. At least until I test the Museum Black- 
I'm hoping that'll give me the extra 3% it needs to feel truly 
satisfying. I should say though, I haven't tried it on PR yet, that 
always helps your dmax!
