Ilford Multigrade IV RC Deluxe Resin Coated VC Paper, 8x10, 100 Pack (Glossy)

I’m glad I got these , they are good quality making my photos look great. I’m taking a photography class and my professor liked it.

Having never used a darkroom before, I started out with a pack of this paper and fell in love. I feel like developing prints on it is magical, haha. It's easy to manipulate values, it dries quickly, develops smoothly with little to know screw ups (I've had one problem out of probably fifty sheets of paper, and I guarantee it was my fault.) I love the glossiness and the fact that it doesn't pick up too horribly on finger prints like most other glossy papers I've used. Definitely a great value. 10/10, would recommend.

A LOT of good photo paper. RC paper is great for people who don't want to spend a lot of time and money on getting great prints. The glossy variety produces fantastic, rich blacks that can't quite be achieved on the pearl. The 100 pack is great because trust me, it's really not that hard to use 100 sheets of photo paper over the course of ten hours in the darkroom. Also, Ilford's RC paper is probably the most resilient photo paper I've ever used. I left it in the developer for three minutes and the print still came out perfect. I left it in the water bath for quite a few hours and it still didn't deteriorate in any way. You can pretty much do everything wrong with this paper and it will still do right by you. I really, really, REALLY like this paper and would absolutely choose it over the other types.

Worked well for my college photography class! Paper eventually loses it pictures after time but that is common with this kind of paper. Makes good prints, just dont expose it to ANY light whatsoever.

This pack has lasted my entire semester (almost done with my final project and still have at least ten or more sheets left!). The package came sealed properly and undamaged (which is pretty important for something that is useless if exposed to light). Overall, this is a pretty good deal for anyone but especially for a photo student who needs a semester’s worth of photo paper.

Ilford is a great company that has stuck by traditional photographers for years now which is really saying something. That commitment to traditional photographers really shows in the quality of this paper. I only use Ilford papers and i can assure you, they are top of the line with consistent quality, which is one of the most important aspects for me. The worst thing is inconsistent paper because there's really no way to be in control of how your prints develop when that's the case.On a side note, I think I ruined a pack of about 100 sheets of this paper by accidentally leaving it in my car in the 110 degree summer heat here in Texas. I'm still going to try developing it and maybe get some interesting results! Could be interesting but don't make the same mistake I did! Keep your paper protected in the right temperature and humidity.

A 25 pack runs about $25, so this is a steal. I don't have to feel stingy when I print because I have so much paper, which makes printing a lot less stressful. And I can use this paper in the dryer in my darkroom because its Resin Coated. I don't have much experience using many different types of paper, but this is my boyfriend's favourite kind, and I have no regrets buying it either.

Good
