Another New paper from Fuji for C-Type prints

[AgPhotographic]

Yet another paper release from Fujifilm, for process RA4 - Fujicolor Professional VELVET. (I think this is the third or fourth this year!)

This is a really exciting paper and fills a gap. The surface is a flat matt with a very low sheen (unlike the regular Matte paper that we use in the lab, which has a sheen to it).

It's just available in rolls, so it's mainly aimed at lab use - but we will be offering it very shortly, and it will be available to anyone who wants to use it in their darkroom and is prepared to cut off the roll. Sizes from 12" to 50".

We receive the first rolls on Wednesday and it will be included in our new swatch book for C-Type prints, which we will start sending out this week:

Very pleased to hear Fuji are continuing to invest in RA4 technology. I would be even happier if they (or you) would sell it in sheet form. I don't mind the idea of cutting rolls myself, but I don't have the fridge space to store them uncut

We're going to see what the Velvet is like to use under the enlarger and if it performs well, we could get it confectioned into sheet.

Thanks Mattew - I'd be very interested to hear how it performs.
Is the paper base any thicker than the other paper that's sold in sheets (the basic Crystal Archive)?
