Description
This listing is for a sealed package of 25 sheets of NOS vintageKodak Panalure Select RC FL Black-and-White Photographic Paper.
This medium-weight glossy white panchromatic photo paper came in 3 different contrast grades; this particular package is "L"-grade, for "high contrast color negatives" ("M" was for normal contrast and "H" was for low contrast.)
This particular package is presumed to be expired
, but while there is no expiration date visible on the outside of the package, this paper was discontinued in 2005 and I make no guarantees that it will work as intended. Bear this in mind if you decide to purchase it;
I cannot accept returns once the package has been opened.
From Wikipedia:
Kodak Panalure is a panchromatic black-and-white photographic printing paper. Panalure was developed to facilitate the printing of full-tone black-and-white images from colour negatives – a difficult task with conventional orthochromatic papers due to the orange tint of the film base. Panalure also finds application as paper negatives in large format cameras. It is generally not suitable for conventional black-and-white printing, since it must be handled and developed in near-complete darkness.
Kodak has announced that it will no longer produce or sell this product [as of 2005.] However, as of early 2006, it is still available from various online retailers.
Differently sensitised materials require different safelights. In traditional black-and-white photographic printing, photographic papers normally are handled under an amber or red safelight, as such papers typically are sensitive only to blue and green light. Orthochromatic papers and films are also sensitive to yellow light and must be used only with a deep red safelight, not with an amber one.[1] Panchromatic films and papers, nominally sensitive to the entire spectrum, sometimes have a region of minimum in their range of sensitivity that allows the careful use of safelight confined to that part of the spectrum. For example, Kodak Panalure panchromatic paper is tolerant of limited exposure to light filtered through a Kodak 13 Safelight Filter.[2] Other panchromatic materials must be handled only in total darkness.
The word "safe" in "safelight" is relative, as in most cases, a sensitised material eventually will be affected by its safelight if exposed to it for an extended length of time.
