Dear Colleagues,
Last time I was making analog prints I was using Kodak Endura Portra and Supra. Probably those papers had other names in the U.S., but what it boiled down to was: normal/hard. There also was Ultra, very hard, which I hardly ever used.
I just browsed through B&Hīs inventory of colour negative papers, and as per their respective descriptions each of these papers is the best paper ever made, with super colors and all totally super. Thatīs super cool but not what I wanted to know.
There is: Kodak Ektacolor Generations and Kodak Ektacolor Royal Generations, and Fuji Crystal Archive and Crystal Archive Super C. Also thereīs Fuji Pearl, but I suppose thatīs the same stuff as Kodak metallic (please tell me Iīm wrong!).
So please - which of these papers can I use instead of Portra, which one instead of Supra?
Thanks,
Michael
