The Ilford MGFilt A\/Lens is an above-the-lens multigrade filter for printers who want to control contrast during enlarging. Its grade 4.5 marking indicates a strong contrast setting, making it relevant when a print needs a firmer, more defined look rather than a subtle adjustment. The filter is intended for people working with multigrade printing materials and an enlarger setup that uses an above-lens filter. It gives you a specific grade to work with, rather than leaving you to guess at a general contrast change. If you’re learning to make deliberate darkroom adjustments, or refining prints that need stronger contrast, this is a focused tool for that job. It won’t replace careful exposure and test strips, but it gives your printing process a clearly marked contrast option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specialist-note\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Is grade 4.5 for a noticeably punchier print?” Yes—it’s a strong contrast grade, so I’d use it when a print needs more separation and definition, not for a barely perceptible tweak. Because this is an above-lens filter, position it over the enlarging lens when you want to apply that grade in your printing setup. The 30x30cm format gives you a substantial square area to work with; take care to position it consistently over the lens. It suits darkroom printers making contrast-led black-and-white prints. I’d make a test strip at this grade before committing to a full print, as the result may be stronger than you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Ilford\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: MG filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition: Above lens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 30x30cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade: 4.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ilford","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57563780284756,"sku":"HAR1833094","price":66.91,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/it\/products\/ilford-mgfilt-a-lens-30x30cm-gr4-5","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
