it is incredible. 21 th century and people doen´t know diference between diferent plates technology:
- Thermal digital plates are standar plates for CTP (Agfa, Kodak, Fuji, Ipagsa) between 100 and 140 mJ Energy and need develope quemistry.
- Process-less plate are Prestek (300 mJ), Thermal direct (300 mJ) and Fuji Pro T. (120 mJ)
- Process-less means without post process (develope, water,...)
- Quemistry-free plates like Azura from Agfa means with ouput process like develope with special gum, wash and dry stage but without quemistry (spite of this gum is a quemistry too).
I think the future will be process-less, but or the moment I prefer digital plate like the spanish plate Ipagsa.
