Subject: [pure-silver] multigrade paper is amazing
I just did an interesting experiment. I printed a stouffer step tablet on
Ilford warmtone multigrade paper, beginning at #00 filtration and ending at
#5 filtration. I found out that the paper scale varies not a little bit,
but a whole lot!
After printing the step tablet, I read its values on a densitometer. I
found out that at filtration #00, the paper has a scale of 1.5. It printed
about 12-13 steps between say zone 3 and zone 7. On the other hand, at
filtration #5, it had a scale of only 0.47 and printed only 4-5 steps
between zone 3 and zone 7.
This is pretty amazing to me. How does it do it? I know that it has
something to do with the layers of emulsion. But still.
