Sepia Pictures When sepia pictures are developed, are the negatives b&w or colour? From what I heard it is either b&w negatives on colour paper or colour negatives on b&w paper. Which is correct?

True sepia tone is a process that changes the color of black & white prints (on B&W paper)AFTER they have been developed. There are other toning processes that produce other shades (selenium, gold tone, etc.) Platinum printing produces a completely different look, but it is a printing system. Perhaps what you heard about color paper refers to using the new C-41 black and white films (Ilford XP-2, Kodak T400CN). An operator who is really good can print these in a color that is similar to sepia. rich@kona.net
