Optica One

Optica One

Description

300gsm bright white smooth fine art paper, 100% cotton
Optica One is a 300gsm bright white, matte fine art paper with a luxuriously smooth surface ideal for high resolution photographic imagery. It is able to produce extremely crisp and accurate detail as a result of its leadership (when measured against other fine art papers on the market today) in tonal range value, line quality, line contrast, and raggedness.

Optica One is Breathing Color's latest innovation tailor-made for the demanding and discerning photographer who values superior performance in print quality.

Key Features

Unrivaled colour gamut & dmax
With a proprietary inkjet receptive coating that delivers off-the-chart numerical readings in dmax and colour gamut, Optica One represents the new age of fine art papers from Breathing Color and is unmistakably in a league of its own.

Delivers extremely deep blacks
The dmax on Optica One is exceptional. If you print black & white photography, this paper is a must see.

Beautiful skin tones
Just wait until see your portrait photography on Optica One. It might be the most pleasing reproduction of skin tones you have ever seen on a fine art paper.

Incredible resolution
Optica One will bring a new perspective to the finest detail contained in your photographs. Photographers spend a lot of money to buy the right camera and equipment that will enable them to capture every detail of their vision. It's time to use a paper that can do the same.

Archival certified
Optica One is archival certified for 100+ years. Download and utilise Optica's Archival Certificate to differentiate your business and show your customers how much you care about quality.

Water-resistant
Optica One will accept a water based liquid laminate or water based varnish and is compatible with Timeless laminate allowing users to display their fine art prints without glass. See how here.

Option # 3 - Manage Your Own Color Professionally

There is only one way to manage your color workflow and ensure that your prints meet your standards, and that is by managing your own color. First, your monitor must be calibrated. Then, the media you are using must be profiles for use with your specific printer. Even though we may be able to provide you with a generic icc profile for your printer model, every individual printer "drifts" from this and this is why a generic profile will never deliver 100% accurate results.

The good news is that Xrite, the global leader in color science, has made this easier and more affordable than ever with their Colormunki Photo product. Colormunki was designed specifically as a completely integrated color control solution for photographers and printmakers, so that you can get accurate screen to print color matching, every time.
