I'm looking to buy some Ilford Sepia toner but can't seem to source any!
Can anyone point me in the right direction or to an alternative Sepia?

I need to order it today as I need it for next week.

Thanks!

Laura,
If you are going to use sepia toner a lot as I do mix your own it's easy to make and costs very little compared to the commercial brews and it's better.

Jon this is only for some college work - can't see me using much of it after that :)

Laura,you might be surprised, toning can become addictive,it can add a richness to the finished print,Richard

I tone a lot, even choose the paper I use for it'sability to take toner, It doesn,t show on my albums Etc as I always scan in grey scale as I find scanning in color to try and bring out the tone it goes wrong,Richard
