    Low contrast RA4 paper?

    I gather that Kodak are discontinuing Supra Endura papers and will offer a higher contrast paper but only in rolls.

    I liked Supra Endura semi-matte (11x14 sheets) but now it is disappearing. Is there anything from Fuji that is similar to Supra Endura?

    I just hope that non-digital RA4 printing does not go the way of the Polaroid.

    Fuji Crystal Archive P is lower contrast than C. Both matte and lustre are still available from B&H and probably others. I prefer the surface on matte versus lustre as lustre seems almost pebbly to me.

    Cheers Bob. I will have to try to find some of the matte.

    Ditto. Portait "P" paper from Fuji is abundant and well balanced for ordinary enlarging. So far Fuji has taken care to make their popular papers practical for both
    digital and analog printing. I wouldn't worry at all.
