Q: 1. I'm torn between getting Adox MCC 112 and the Ilford multigrade FB, semi-matte. Which would you suggest?

A: Hi Amanda. I've used both the Adox and Ilford matt. Paper's always a personal matter. But I find I can get a broader range of tones from the Ilford. Also I love the color of the Ilford matt blacks & whites. Warm but deep. I find the Adox to be equally sharp, but a different shade of warm...tending a little more toward pinkish. Not a bad look, but I prefer the ilford. I develop in Tetenal Eukobrom and if I want to cool down the black tones, I add about 5ml of Moersch Finisher Blue to a 1000ml solution of Eukobrom. Hope this helps. They're both good papers, but I prefer the feel and tonal range of the Ilford.
