Hello!!
Does anybody know if the Durst VLS 501-head is a perfect match for the Ilford MG IV paper???.
I think there is a difference in the colour of the light using the grade IV-V filters from the MG filter set and the VLS 501 head....

Thanks

The Ilford IV-V filters, I believe, are somewhat special narrow bandpass filters. However, my Durst, with its magenta dichroic filter, gives me a near identical #5 in a side-by-side comparison with the Ilford #5.

Yes you are right... The problem is not in the higher grades IV-V but in the grades 0-II. There is a big difference in the colour??

Thanks for your answer
