Ilford Multigrade RC Portfolio Pearl Sheets - 9.5x12 - 50 Pack

Multigrade RC Portfolio Pearl Sheets

Reformulated and relaunched in 2021, Ilford Multigrade RC Portfolio is a premium double-weight resin coated (RC), variable contrast paper.

It combines the rigidity, weight, and premium quality feel of our double-weight fibre-based papers with the ease of use, convenience and quick, flat drying characteristics associated with all Ilford RC papers.

The redesigned RC emulsion also closely emulates the image tone and sensitometry performance of Multigrade Classic FB paper making alternating between RC and fibre easier than ever.

This paper integrates some of the best characteristics of both bases making it perfect for all printers – from students and beginners to experienced darkroom professionals wanting extra special, premium quality prints for clients, portfolios, or exhibitions.

Like its predecessor, this paper offers exceptional image quality throughout its wide contrast range of grades 00-5, but with several important advancements in performance.

Utilising Ilford's 5th generation MULTIGRADE emulsion, it benefits from a slightly warmer base tint, better blacks for greater depth, improved mid-grade spacing and a smoother sensometric curve providing more uniform contrast throughout the tonal range.

Multigrade System

Multigrade RC Portfolio is part of the Ilford Multigrade system and seven full grades of contrast can be achieved when used with Ilford Multigrade filters. It can be used with most common safelights for black & white darkroom papers such as the ILFORD 902 safelight filter.
