So what's your favorite type of paper? Fiber or RC (Resin Coated)?

Personally, I've always liked fiber. It just feels nicer and I like the look of it more. It also just feels right. RC is great if you're in a rush, but it's so... Plasticky.

Fiber for prints, but RC for quick samples or printfiles.

I would love to use more fiber, but mostly it's RC. So much quicker washing and drying, I use a photo club darkroom and like to take prints home the same night I printed them. And even though I love the look and feel of a nice fiber paper, I can't say that Ilford RC papers look bad. ;)

Use both, of course RC is more practical, but for my favourite pics I would use fiber based paper
