As the 5th generation of Ilford's globally renowned black & white photo papers, it incorporates the latest emulsion technology to deliver exceptional image quality and a full tonal range across a wide contrast range of grades 00-5. This 5x7" resin-coated photo paper is perfect for those venturing into the darkroom for the first time, as well as experienced printers seeking full creative control. Its ease of use and outstanding results make it a go-to choice for students and professionals alike. The Multigrade V RC Deluxe also boasts excellent toning properties, providing an alternative starting option for those wishing to experiment with or learn toning, compared to traditional fiber-based papers. Building on Ilford's proud tradition of quality since the launch of the world's first variable contrast Multigrade paper in 1940, this 5th generation paper introduces key enhancements over the Multigrade IV RC Deluxe. These include a slightly warmer base tint for richer visuals, deeper blacks for enhanced depth, improved mid-grade spacing, and a smoother sensometric curve. This ensures more uniform contrast throughout the tonal range, further elevating the quality of your black & white photography.
