In my search for good quality cheaper photo papers I came across what my sixth sense told me might be good enough for me. The reason I thought this paper might be OK was the retail shop I bought it from online (they are in Sydney & I'm up in Brisbane) deal in photographic accessories & they have a studio they rent out & this is the only paper they sell. My reasoning was that if they are selling this to keen or even professional photographers then it might be good stuff.
I wasn't sure about the paper being from China but in the specs on the Chinese web site it said the paper is from Japan so maybe they put the coating on in China. Anyhow I bought a pack of 20 A3+ diamond gloss & a 20 pack of A3+ Pearl at $30 & $35 respectively, a great saving for me over the $150 Canons A3+ papers would have cost & my first prints on each paper look terrific to me'
Does anyone have any knowledge of these papers & any pros or cons?
Here's a link to the shop in Sydney.
