Review Summary

Used this for my Photo Studio class, and it actually held up really well. I shot with Delta 100 film and the grain was hardly noticeably. I do like printing larger in the dark room but, what I despise the most, is when there's a piece of lint or dust in the enlarger. It wastes my whole print and I'd have to print again. Since it's 10 sheets it's a bit difficult to find the right exposure for the sheet as each paper batch is created different. So cutting one sheet into teststrips are recommended. Then, if you like the image you would then fork over large sums of money for the 25 or 100 count 9.5"x12"

Multigrade IV RC DELUXE has a bright base tint. The image color remains cool-to-neutral whether viewed in daylight or fluorescent light. Multigrade IV RC is part of the ILFORD Multigrade system and is fully compatible with all existing Multigrade filters and equipment. It is equally suitable for printing from conventional negatives and from XP2 SUPER negatives. Multigrade IV RC Deluxe has the standard weight (190g/m 2 ) resin coated base.
Exposure
Multigrade IV RC is designed for use with all enlargers.
Safelight recommendations
Multigrade IV RC can be used with most common safelights for black and white papers. The ILFORD safelights are especially recommended as they generally allow darkrooms to be brighter, but completely safe, for Multigrade IV RC and many black and white papers. ILFORD safelights are the ILFORD SL1 darkroom safelight or the ILFORD 902 (light brown) safelight filter fitted in a darkroom lamp (for example, the ILFORD DL10 or DL20). A 15W bulb is recommended with these safelights. For direct lighting, do not expose the paper to the safelight for more than 4 minutes and the distance between the paper and the safelight should be a minimum of 1.2m/4ft. Other filters can be used, for example, the Kodak OC and the Agfa-Gevaert G7 or the Philips PF710 safelamp.
