In black and white papers, the emulsion is normally sensitized to blue and green light but is
insensitive to wavelength longer than 600 nanometer to facilitate handling under the red and
orange safe lighting.

GRADE CHARACTERISTICS
EMULSION SPEED

a) CHLORIDE PAPER - It is relatively slow printing


paper coated with an emulsion of silver chloride used
mostly for contact prints.

b) BROMIDE PAPER – It is fast printing paper coated


with an emulsion of silver bromide used mostly for
enlargements

c) CHLOROBROMIDE PAPER - It is a photographic


paper coated with a sensitive layer of a mixture of silver
bromide and silver chloride, giving a medium emulsion
speed, used for contact printing or enlarging.
EXPOSURE AND DEVELOPMENT
LATITUDE

a) LATITUDE – It is the degree or amount of which you


can deviate from idea exposure or development without
appreciable loss of print quality.
b
b) EXPOSURE LATITUDE – It is the extents which light
sensitive material can be overexposed or underexposed
and still achieve acceptable result.

c) DEVELOPMENT LATITUDE – Papers do not change


appreciable in contrast and image tone with reasonable
variation in development has a good latitude.
CONTRAST – RANGE AND GRADE

a) GRADE 0 AND 1 – used an over


exposed or low contrast negative.

b) GRADE 2 – is used on normal


exposed or normal contrast negative

c) GRADE 3 TO 5 – used under


exposed or high contrast negative.
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

a a) SURFACE – Photographic papers vary in surface


texture or degrees gloss or sheen. They are the glossy and
smooth, semi mate or silk, and the matte or the rough
surface.
b) BASE AND WEIGHT – Under this category, we have
the light weight, single weight, medium weight, and
double weight.
c) COLOR – May be cold or white with a very slight blue
cast, and the warm or cream where the white has a slight
c yellow brown line.
