Kentmere VC Select photographic paper

Kentmere 6007540 VC Select is a variable-contrast bromide-iodide paper on a resin-coated base, supplied as 100 sheets for darkroom printing. It is compatible with Ilford MG Filters grades 00 to 5, giving full contrast control from a single emulsion. The ISO 9002 accredited manufacturing ensures consistent batch quality for professional workflows.

For printers who need speed and neutral tones

This paper suits commercial and creative printers who want deep rich blacks, crisp whites and excellent tonal separation on a high-speed emulsion. It is not for buyers who need inkjet or laser media, nor for those who require a fibre-based baryta surface for archival processing.

One stop faster emulsion speed

The emulsion is one stop faster than most variable-contrast papers, cutting exposure times by 50 percent and reducing production time in the darkroom. This speed advantage is the key specification that decides whether the paper matches a printer’s workflow demands.

Questions about this item

Does the Kentmere 6007540 paper generate heat or noise during long printing sessions?

No, this is a light-sensitive photographic paper that sits passively in the darkroom; it produces no heat, noise or power draw while you expose and process sheets.

What chemicals and equipment must I already own to use this VC Select paper?

You need a variable-contrast enlarger or Ilford MG filters grades 00-5, plus standard black-and-white developer, stop bath, fixer and a safelight for handling.

Will this emulsion work with an older enlarger that only takes fixed-grade filters?

Yes, the variable-contrast emulsion responds to Ilford MG filters 00-5, so any enlarger that can hold those filters — including older models — will control contrast normally.
