I can attest to the high quality of printing by
Tony's lab.
Tony has made many prints for me up to 40 x 30".
The prints
are on high quality kodak glossy paper. The color,
saturation and
smoothness are superb. You can even make use of
Tony's
superb processing skills and experience if you
desire his processing
input on your images.
Another issue I'd like to comment on is the
printability of CCD images.
This may be of interest to those considering
delving into CCD but
concerned about the printability of CCD image
compared to film.
CCD files are naturally smaller than routine
scanned film files.
However due to the smoothness of high quality well
exposed CCD images
large high quality prints are possible. My ST10
images generate files
that are about 8MB. Film folks would consider this
a small file but many
of my ST10 images have been printed at 16 x 24" and
are very smooth
and sharp. Some of my images taken with my IMG1024
camera generate
even smaller files
(3MB) but have been printed by Tony at 20 x 20" and
have held up remarkably. Of course, CCD
mosaics approach typical scanned
film file sizes. Tony has printed my M31 mosaic
(39MB file) at 40 x 30".
I was very happy with the result.
