Firstcall Heavyweight Photo Lustre (Olmec), A3, Pack of 50

Product Description

Olmec is our oldest promoted range of inkjet paper. In the past we have sponsored Student Photographic Competitions printed exclusively in school and colleges using their paper so we know the product is exceptional.

It is therefore quite re-assuring that Olmec rose to the challenge of introducing new products to fill the void left by Ilford.

We have been selling their award-winning Heavyweight range for 20 years. It offers excellent image quality and similarity to traditional halide prints, the unquestionable quality coming from the fact that the base of the paper is made by Mitsubishi of Japan. For everyday use, similar to Galerie Premium we would suggest their Heavyweight Photo Gloss 260gsm. However Premium Pearl did not previously have a comparative product as their Satin lacked the lustre of Premium Pearl. Now with Heavyweight Photo Lustre there is a Pearl alternative too.
