URGENT: Latolite bottle tops - Black or Super Black?

[Mr Mike]

As per subject i am about to order a 6x7 black bottle top but after searching I have found the super black as well as the black.

Has anyone got either of these?

Does anyone know the real world differences and is it worth the extra £20 for super black?

My subjects are likely to be close the the hilite due to space so guessing the super black is the one to have :shrug:

I read it somewhere, but for the life of me I cannot remember where, that someone recommended the Super Black.

I will be buying the super black when I get some money, what a cracking product that Hilite is, love it

Hey Phil, cheers for the input here....

I just called Lastolite technical line but they finish early (very early by looks of it) on a Friday so nobody there i can speak to regarding this. The girl i spoke to says the Super Black is made of a velvet material and the Black is made of something different that is more shiny.

Based on that it looks like the super is defo the way forward but at £84 compared to cheapest black at £52 it a hefty price, if i buy the cheaper then probably moan for ever until i buy the super :nono:

Its nae half an expensive hobby this :bonk:

Quick update..

Ordered the Super black from 1st cameras which just cost £97 delivered, the only other place was WHE but they now have it on back order and suspended all deliveries to Scotland so wouldnt have managed to get it, only £87 delivered. I did find another site but cant remember and it was over £100 without delivery.

I hope its worth it especially when the normal black can be had for £50ish, thing is its a christmas pressy so i cant even touch it when it arrives :bonk:
