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

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.

The only previous paper i have used was a kodak paper (some years ago), now no longer readily available. This paper does not seem to have the corner durability in handling that i used to recall in the other paper i used.

I'm very much pleased with the paper
It was cheaper than I thought it would be.
I was very urgent and the paper came right on time.

The glossy paper when making prints creates great dark blacks & very white whites, and if you're taking a photography class and plan on using many sheets, I would highly recommend buying a larger package rather than a bunch of small ones. You'll save money that way too!
