HARMAN DIRECT POSITIVE FB is a premium quality, black & white photo paper. This fixed grade, high contrast paper is perfect for pinhole photography as exposure and processing in conventional black & white photo chemistry will achieve a positive print without the need for a negative.

In addition, this versatile paper can be used to creative photograms or substituted for standard photo paper when printing from negatives in an enlarger. It can also be successfully used in other applications such as direct exposure in large format cameras.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Robert ★★★★★

The glossy surface on this 4x5 paper gives pinhole prints a really sharp, almost wet-look finish that I didn't expect. Processing was straightforward with standard chemicals, and the contrast hit exactly right for my long exposures.

Emma ★★★★★

For pinhole shots where you need that extra contrast and crisp detail, this 4x5 paper delivers beautifully. The direct positive process means no negative to fuss with, and cutting it down in the darkroom is straightforward. Really happy with the rich blacks and clean whites I'm getting.

Chloe ★★★★★

The glossy finish on these sheets gives my pinhole shots a crisp, almost metallic depth that scans beautifully. Fixed grade means I dial in my paper developer once and stop fiddling with contrast filters.
