First-rate paper
My papers of choice had been baryta varietiess from Hahnemuhle, Ilford Prestige, and Epson Legacy. A friend suggested I try Big Bend Baryta. Well. Although my standard papers are a bit thicker (roughly 314 mm vs 310), the color, contrast, and overall resonance of Big Bend's version is noticeably superior. My wife observed the difference as well, without prompting. At a cost significantly lower than the name brands, BBB is now my new standard. Congrats!

A truly beautiful paper, but it curls

David Feingold, Jul 30, 2026

This is a beautiful paper: excellent reproduction for both color and B&W. It has enough heft to be taken seriously. I have used it for exhibitions in Paris, Bangkok, Siem Reap, Phnom Penh, and MSU. It is fine if it is properly mounted, but can develop quite bad curling.

This paper meets all the criteria of my needs in range of hues and contrast. I love the papers' weight for handling as well as giving it a durable feel.


BIG BEND BARYTA 310 for BW on Canon Pro-200s

Carlan Tapp, Jul 06, 2026

Beautiful surface paper. Printing only BW. Used the profile with Lightroom, Canon print driver using the suggested Photo Paper Pro Platinum and finally Photo Paper Pro Luster. (both with the proper BW settings) My personal testing was a slight magenta tone in the midtones with the first two tests. Using the Photo Paper Pro Luster with a slight correction in print driver produced good results for neutral bw print.
