First time using Hahnemuhle Photorag
2005-10-07 by elitephotolv
It seems that wherever I look, it seems everyone is hailing this paper as the best money can buy. I bought a box and have been testing it out with the following comments/ (all with the QTR): 1.There seems to be no Hahnemule curves in QTR when using the 2200. 2.Ater searching this list, I see someone suggested using EEM (my favorite paper by the way)so that is what I have used. 3. The prints came out rather flat at first-sort of lightish- but seem to be drying into a nice dmax (no, i don't know exactly the number) after about 15 minutes. 4. Is this normal? 5. How much time will be required for the total "drying"? 6. Does this paper like spray coatings? Or should I simply let it be. 7. Has anyone created curves for this paper? 8. While I know we all have our favorite papers, is there a better paper to get those elusive jet black blacks etc? Thanks, Randy
