[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I cracked open a "new" box of Agfa Multicontrast 11x14 glossy fiber paper this morning to make a print, and I found that every sheet that I pulled out had a long vertical scratch in the emulsion, all basically in the same place. To make sure, I printed the same picture with some Agfa 8x10 (at the same mag.) and Ilford 11x14, and the scratch is gone. I bought this box of paper a month or two ago and have just started to make prints with it. Now I'm wondering how common this kind of defect is, and if I should test every box of paper as a receive it. That would be sort of a pain, as I'd rather store paper unopened if I can. Have any of the darkroom mavens in Leica land had this experience? Thanks, Pete __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
