A decent utility paper

It is a decent utility paper, but highlights sometimes come out a little muddy due to the paper itself not being a bright white. And while polyphenol developers can work with this paper, the silver in the emulsion tends to react leaving the whole sheet with a slight greyish tint that compresses the tonal range. Regular paper developers work just fine.

A great product at a really amazing affordable price

I have tried other Foma products before. I’m a fan of Foma Classic 100 film with its great classic look and great contrast. I have also used Fomafix fixer and also find it good product. This photo paper is also a great product at a really amazing affordable price. Very recommended!

great product for pinhole cameras

I used this in a photography class to create long-exposure pin-hole camera images. It was great at capturing and recording enough light to then print by photographing with an ipad, enhancing and then printing the reverse image. Will use again.

Excellent

Beautiful paper, easy to use and dries very nice and flat. Took a few tries to get the hang of how the paper worked best, but it’s been very consistent ever since. I love the velvet finish. I’d definitely repurchase.

Great Enlargement Paper

Great B & W paper at a good price. Super fast shipping.

With the Fomaspeed Variant III 311 VC RC Paper, you can bring your black-and-white photography to life with unparalleled quality and precision. This high-quality, variable-contrast enlarging photographic paper is built on a durable resin-coated (RC) paper base, offering a versatile range of contrast from extra soft to ultra hard when used with color filters during exposure.

Designed for a wide array of applications, this professional-grade paper is ideal for amateur, commercial, and artistic photography. The Fomaspeed Variant III 311 VC RC Paper stands out with its rich half-tone scale across all contrast grades, a brilliant white paper base, and deeply saturated blacks, ensuring your photos capture every detail with stunning clarity and depth.

The paper is crafted using a silver chlorobromide emulsion, which imparts a neutral-to-medium warm tone to the silver image, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your prints. The emulsion layer also incorporates developing agents that facilitate rapid machine processing and reduce manual processing times to a mere 60 - 90 seconds at 20 degrees Celsius.

Thanks to the resin-coated paper base and thin emulsion layer, the Fomaspeed Variant III 311 VC RC Paper not only shortens the time required for development, fixing, washing, and drying, but also reduces the consumption of processing baths and washing water. This glossy paper, available in matte and velvet surfaces, is a testament to Foma's commitment to producing affordable, reliable, and long-lasting products for the photography industry.
