Traditional black-and-white photographic paper
Fomatone MG Classic is a variable-contrast paper on a fibre baryta base with a warm cream tone. It is designed for contact printing and enlargement work in a darkroom, using standard black-and-white chemistry. The emulsion shifts from brown-green to warm-brown depending on the developer chosen. Each pack contains 25 sheets.
Check darkroom workflow before ordering
You need a darkroom equipped for fibre-based paper processing, including a suitable safelight, trays and a drying area. The paper is rated at ISO 131, so exposure times will be longer than for resin-coated grades. Confirm you have variable-contrast filters or a colour head to access the full contrast range from extra soft to ultra hard.
Suits printers seeking warm-toned fibre prints
This paper suits photographers who want rich warm halftones and the archival qualities of a baryta base, especially for portraiture and lith printing. It is not suited for high-speed production, machine processing or cold-tone neutral images. Buyers who need a resin-coated surface or a neutral image tone should look elsewhere.
