Today I received my prints from 3 photo's I made with my 10D and the Sigma 70-210 f2.8 APO.

The size I choose was 50x75cm.
To be honest I thought that the results would be average, but what a quality....
I did use GF to enlarge the shot on 50x75 300dpi.

The pictures are still razor sharp and no pixels are seen.

Anyone else who has gone even bigger ?

Greetings,
Frank

PS.
Price was € 16,50 per print.

For our Imperial friends.. That's about 20 inches by 30 inches :)

No, I've never printed that big.. But now I've got to try it. I have one shot I've been thinking of blowing up....

Jim_T,

Is that a lens on your tripod or are you happy to see this forum?

About 20 by 30 inches? That's the largest prints I've yet had from my D60 or 10D images. I am very impressed with the (technical) quality of those prints!

Hi Matt,
I did it at a C1000, you have to make sure they do business with Quelle. If the shots are send to Kodak you will get a call that this is not possible :D.

The price was € 14,50 by the way.

Also deliver in sRGB one of my shots was by accident Adobe RGB and this one has muted colors (not bad, but less stunning than the other ones).

Greetings,
Frank
