Title: Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Baryta Discontinued?
Post by: John Hollenberg on July 26, 2020, 10:46:15 am

I can't find it on the Hahnemuhle site but B&H still has it in stock.  Has it been discontinued?  Temporary shortage?

Do you like it? I bought some, to compare with Canson Photographique 2, and I found the surface to resemble a teenager's skin, unpleasantly pockmarked. Just me, perhaps.

Yes, I like it.  No OBA (can't say that for Canson Photographique 2, Canson rates OBA "very low").  The irregularities on the surface give the paper character.

Jeremy, I moved to Photo Rag Baryta a few years ago from Ilford Galerie Gold Fibre Silk. FWIW, I found the texture of the Ilford a little too smooth for my taste and prefer the more irregular tooth of the Hahnemühle paper. Different strokes...  :)

Glad to hear it hasn't gone away.

One of my personal favorites. Canson Baryta the old version was ok (sold under several labels) , the new version is not so ok.
The HPRB315 can invoke beautiful depth if image has it, and its texture is nice.

+1 - one of my favourites as well... Canson Platine i like too.
Both papers work well on a HPZ3100( or 3200) with the Gloss Enhancer.

If you are in Europe, try MedieJET Museum Natural Silk.
It's similar to Canson Platine Fiber Rag, but probably at a better price.

Kind regards
