Wonderful transition from in focus to out of focus. Even stopped down the look was very good. I took a long look at the Crane papers. They looked very good, and at a better price point than the brand H offerings, but trust me, you will want to check back in about a month when the Innova and Hannemuhle papers hit the street. Absolutely lovely.
