Hi all,
I was looking round the shops today and I came across some photo paper made by a German company, Tecco. They have a 270gsm Baryt and a 285gsm Luster. I was wondering if anyone has tried these papers out, and if so what they think of them? I would use them in my HP9180. Is see from Tecco's website that they do have 9180 profiles for these papers.
Answer to obvious question #1 (why don't you just buy a pack and try?): Well I may do, but the paper is damn expensive (about $150 equivalent for a pack of 25 A3 sheets of the Baryt). Everything in Kenya is at least 50% more expensive than in Europe.
Answer to obvious question #2 (why don't you stick with stuff which is tried and tested, HP paper, Hahnemule, Ilford etc?). Unfortunately, these are unobtainable in Kenya. Ordering through Amazon etc is an option but a costly one (freight) and risky (it may vanish into a black hole in customs). So I take what I can get!
Thanks
Ed
