Just on the IGPFS packages or on all the media packages?

Don't know - I haven't bought the other packages.

........... it would be even nicer if someone reviewed/tested the three identical papers I mentioned and published it in English. May be a disappointing project as I expect not much difference between the three.


For two of them:

You'll notice I obtained a slightly larger gamut volume for the IGFS than for the Hahn Silk Baryta. But test prints seen on paper - as you've said, very close products.

In my opinion, in general the new Ilford Imaging papers are less unique as they have been when the papers were still coated in Marly, Swiss.

My main interest is what the prints look like when I'm using a standard comparator such as the well known Atkinson or Outback printer test target. I printed the target on the new IGFS, compared with a print of it I had made on the old IGFS and I couldn't detect any difference of tonal or colour rendition between them, seen under the same Solux lighting.

The new packaging has a little printed circle on the label saying it is "WIR-Certified" or some such - that's Wilhelm-Imaging. If it has that you know it's new stock

Thanks for the trick, Mark.

Excellent timing, I was about to ask the exact same question. Bonus question: What's the deal with Ilford ? They are back in business ? Sorry, I did some research but I see a lot of contradicting infos.

PS: HI ! I'm new to the forum :)
