Firstcall Heavyweight Photo Lustre (Olmec), A4, Pack of 50

A bright white, resin-coated inkjet paper with a lustre finish, ideal for photographers looking for a high-quality alternative to traditional photographic prints. Olmec's Heavyweight Photo Lustre combines excellent tonal reproduction with a professional pearl-like surface, offering a reliable and affordable solution for photo printing at home, in the studio or at school.

Why We Like It

This paper has been part of the Firstcall range for over two decades, and for good reason. We first discovered Olmec through schools and colleges printing competition entries on their paper — the results spoke for themselves. The lustre surface is perfect if you prefer a softer finish than gloss, but still want rich contrast and detail. It’s also a welcome option for anyone who misses Ilford’s Premium Pearl — this fills that gap very nicely. The Mitsubishi-made base gives the paper its high-quality feel, and the instant-dry, water-resistant coating means it’s practical for everyday use.
