Arista EDU Ultra VC RC Paper Pearl 100 Sheets

Arista EDU Ultra VC RC Paper Pearl is a variable-contrast, black-and-white enlarging paper supplied in a pack of 100 sheets. It features a medium-weight, polyethylene-coated base and a pearl surface finish. The paper is designed for traditional darkroom printing workflows using standard safelight conditions.

Suited for darkroom printers who control contrast

This paper suits photographers who adjust print contrast using Ilford Multigrade or Kodak Polymax filters, or an enlarger colour head with yellow and magenta filtration. It is not for users who require a graded paper with fixed contrast, nor for those printing under safelights other than standard OC, red or sodium-vapour types.

Grades 0 to 5 with ISO P200 speed up to grade 3.5

The paper delivers a contrast range from grade 0 through grade 5. Grades 00 to 3.5 share the same ISO P200 speed rating, while grades 4 and 5 require approximately twice the exposure. It is designed for tungsten or tungsten quartz halogen light sources; other sources may yield different contrast values.

Questions about this item

What safelight bulb wattage is safe when handling this paper?

Use OC or red safelights with a maximum 15 watt bulb to avoid fogging the emulsion.

Which contrast filters are compatible with this variable contrast paper?

Standard Ilford Multigrade or Kodak Polymax/Polycontrast filters work, and an enlarger color head with magenta or yellow filtration can also be used.

How can I confirm the paper is exposing correctly across the contrast range?

Grades 00 to 3.5 share an ISO P200 speed rating, while grades 4 and 5 need roughly twice the exposure for the same density.
