Jeff,
Thanks for the recommendation.  I recently started experimenting
with some Ultra Endura glossy and I really love it.  It has a punch
and saturation very similar to a Type R print.  There is a big difference
between Ultra and Supra or Fuji Crystal Archive.  Looks like I'll
be trying some 160VC in 4x5.  Thanks again.

-Charlie
