Fotokemika's Varycon Variable Contrast RC paper has a rich
quality, reminiscent of classic B&W photographic papers of decades
ago. Using very high silver content and single run coating
methods, these papers yield very high quality results with very long
tonal range.
Varycon Variable Contrast RC is a standard medium weight polyethylene
paper base (168 gsm plus coating weight) and the emulsion contains
about 2 grams per square meter of silver.
A standard red safelight must be used. OC safelights or a combination
of red and OC safelights may result in fogging. Please do a safelight
test for your own darkroom environment.
The PE in the description means that the paper is Resin Coated
(Poly Ethylene coated paper).
The M means that surface is Mat.
With no filter included, the Dmax is 1.90. Spectral sensitivity goes up
to 570nm, with maximum sensitivity at 550nm. The ISO speed with
no filter is P 125.
Compatible with both Ilford Mulitgrade and Fotokemika Varycon filters.
