Photographic paper for portrait and retro work

Foma Fomatone MG Classic 132 VC FB Paper is a traditional black-and-white paper on a fibre baryta base with a cream-coloured warm tone. The matte finish and variable-contrast emulsion suit portrait photography and retro-style prints. It is developed in standard black-and-white chemicals and responds well to lith processes for creative toning.

Thermals noise and power draw

This is a light-sensitive photographic paper, not an electronic device, so it produces no heat, noise or power consumption during use. Storage in a cool, dry place preserves the emulsion before exposure and processing.

Variable contrast from extra soft to ultra hard

Contrast is adjusted continuously from extra soft to ultra hard by using colour filters at exposure, letting the printer match the paper to any negative density. The silver chlorobromide emulsion shifts from brown-green to warm-brown tones depending on the developer chosen. Buyers who need a glossy or resin-coated surface should choose a different paper type.

Questions about this item

How do I expose this 16x20 inch variable-contrast paper correctly?

Use colour filters at the enlarger to shift contrast from extra soft to ultra hard; the 132 g/m² base handles the exposure latitude needed for portrait work.

What chemicals and steps does this fiber-based paper require after exposure?

Develop in standard black-and-white chemicals, then fix, wash and dry; the baryta layer needs thorough washing to avoid staining the warm cream tone.

Which characteristic of this paper limits session length before results drift?

Developer exhaustion changes the warm-brown tone first; monitor print colour and replace developer when the hue shifts away from the intended brown-green cast.
