Image Science April 2006 Update

 

Hello  

Just a quick update again, because we know you may be waiting for the amazing Crane Museo Silver Rag paper to appear....and it's almost here!

Crane Museo Silver Rag (and other Crane Papers)

Many of you have already heard about this remarkable new paper.  It's going to go off like a rocket, and we're taking pre-orders now for the first shipments which are due to arrive any day now (rolls very soon, sheets very soon after).  Demand will certainly outstrip supply in the beginning, so if you're interested, now is the time to place your order.  Image Science is first in line for the product when it arrives, and we'll be getting as much as we can get our hands on, but we do anticipate that we'll sell out pretty quickly - not least because we're offering the best pricing in the country!   This paper is exactly what so many people have been looking for - a true alternative to classic fibre based papers.  Optimised for pigment inks with a unique new coating, it is a 100% cotton paper (alpha cellulose - the best quality there is). This means true longevity AND fantastically deep blacks (far darker than traditional cotton rag papers), a semi-matte/luster/totally classy surface, and great colour gamut.  We've seen a few printed samples and they look great!   Info (including links to reviews) and pricing is here: http://www.imagescience.com.au/Papers/cranePricing.php   Call (03) 9348 9808 ASAP to make your order - first paid for, first served!!   We'll be stocking all the other Crane inkjet products as well (beautiful pre-prepared injet cards, for example), so keep checking back - the pricing info for the other products will be added in the next week or two.  If you want anything in particular before then, just give us a ring on (03) 9348 9808.  

Updated Hahnemuehle Folios

Hahnemuehle have updated their folios - and they're much improved!  4 new colours (Claret (a nice burgundy colour), Black, Silver and Blue), and they're now available in A3 size as well.  Further, the cover pages are much improved (bound all over now, so very attractive and robust), and the chicago screws are hidden using an elegant cover.   http://www.imagescience.com.au/Papers/HMpricing.php#folios  

Eye One Match Has Been Updated to 3.6

If you're running any Eye One unit (and if not, why not?!), then you will want to download the latest upgrade to Eye One Match - version 3.6.  This includes a number of new features including native gamma calibrations, a before and after view, and a calibration testing tool that can analyse your monitors changes over extended periods.  Well worth the download.

Get the upgrade from: http://www.gretagmacbeth.com

That's it for this time - hope you are well and enjoying life!

Cheers
