Pros: GREAT pictures. No stickiness and great shine. Professional quality.
Cons: A little pricey if you're printing home snapshots, but a must for professionals.
The Bottom Line: Great for the professional who needs the best, but a little pricey for a casual photo printer.

| nfalcone's Full Review: Canon F51-3261-400 PHOTO PAPER PRO 15 SHEETS 8.5IN... |
I have to admit that after getting my new Canon S9000 printer, I tried to go the "cheap" route and purchased several different brands of cheaper photo paper. Why do you ask would I try to go cheap when it was obvious that I own the best photo printer on the market (and I'm also pairing it with a great digital camera -- the Canon G2). Well, I thought, "hey, if I can save a little on the paper end of it, great!" Boy was I wrong. You get what you pay for. The cheaper papers produced decent results on the prints; however, they came our EXTREMELY sticky...and never dried. There was no way you could do anything with the pictures. You couldn't put these pics in an album, and forget putting them in a frame, as they would certainly stick to the glass!
I decided, with much hesitation to try some prints on the Canon Photo Paper Pro samples that came with my printer. I was completely hooked! The prints are absolutely beautiful and are of true professional quality. They shine like you wouldn't believe and within seconds of it coming out of the printer, they are touchable. You can print several at a time and not worry about them sticking together in the tray.
With it's price tag, I might not recommend this paper if you're just the casual photo printer for home use, but if you're a professional like myself and need the best photo paper for your prints, then this is the way to go.
The best price that I've found for this paper is on www.buy.com. - $9.73
I also am VERY happy with the Canon S9000 printer and my Canon PowerShot G2 camera.
Price Paid: $9.73
