I see. So to clarify, backlight film is different then inkjet transparency film i.e. OHP or InkPress?Backlight film is in reality just plastic with a ink receiving layer on it.
Thats part of the beauty of paper negs, there are so many ways to work with them!not all is lost if you do not wax or oil your paper
it is very easy to do direct contact prints to silver gelatin.
Ok, here is another question: what is the best way to determine the ISO of the paper used for in-camera negs? I think Ilford may actually state some paper ISOs but I'm not sure. Is there a procedure for this? If so can someone explain it in detail please.
Also, is there any way to control contrast in paper negs like in using film i.e. I can push or pull development to get sky from zone 6 to zone 7 if I want to. I understand that paper basically develops to completion so pushing and pulling by development time is out of the question. It is simply a matter of controlling it in the printing i.e. dodging and burning or masking?
