Premium Variable-Contrast RC Paper

Fomaspeed Variant III 311 is a resin-coated black-and-white photographic paper with a glossy finish. The silver chlorobromide emulsion delivers a neutral-to-medium warm tone. Variable contrast from extra soft to ultra hard is controlled via colour filters at exposure. Supplied in 5x7 inch sheets, 25 per pack.

Darkroom Printers Seeking Flexible Contrast

Amateur, commercial and artistic photographers who need a single paper covering a wide contrast range will benefit from the variable-contrast design and rapid processing chemistry. Users requiring a fixed-grade paper, a different surface texture or a larger sheet format should consider other products.

25-Sheet Pack for Regular Printing Sessions

The pack provides enough sheets for multiple printing sessions and test strips. Machine processing completes in 60 to 90 seconds, supporting efficient workflow. High-volume labs or printers needing larger formats will find the sheet count and 5x7 inch size limiting.

Questions about this item

Do I need a darkroom and variable-contrast filters to use the Fomaspeed Variant III 311 VC RC Paper?

Yes, a darkroom with safelight, black-and-white chemistry, and a set of variable-contrast filters are required to expose and process this silver chlorobromide paper.

Can I process the glossy 5x7" sheets in my existing tray workflow?

The resin-coated base accepts standard tray development; the manufacturer notes manual processing times of 60 to 90 seconds in the developer.

How can I confirm the neutral-to-medium warm tone is rendering correctly?

Make a test strip through a full filter range; a smooth half-tone scale from brilliant white to deep black on the glossy surface indicates proper contrast and tone.
