Ilford Multigrade Filters -6 x 6

For printing ILFORD MULTIGRADE range of papers on unconverted black-and-white
enlargers, ILFORD have produced complete sets of filters for all contrast grades in half
grade steps. MULTIGRADE filters are supplied in 3 inch and 6 inch square sizes to fit
most enlarger's filter drawers, and as a set of mounted filters for below-lens use with a
filter holder. MULTIGRADE filters do not require any recalculation of exposure times
when changing between grades 0 and 3, grades 4 to 5 simply requiring twice the exposure.

The twelve Multigrade filters are numbered 00-5 in 1/2 steps, with the lowest filter number
corresponding to the softest contrast. Filters are available in sets of filters 8 . 9x8 . 9cm (3
1/2x3 1/2 inches) and 15 . 2x15 . 2cm (6x6 inches). They can be used above or below the
lens and can be cut to fit the enlarger filter drawer. Filter sizes 30x30cm (11 . 8x11 . 8
inches) are available to special order.

Multigrade filters are very easy to use: no complicated calculations are needed when
changing from one filter to another. The exposure time for filters 00-3 1/2 is the same;
that for filters 4-5 is double.
