Re: Printing service recommendations sought

Hi Rick, The only printing I've had done for me has been canvas wrap prints, which I've had printed by Artistic Photo Canvas in Florida. They're still around, and I imagine still do a lovely job. I'd recommend them if you want canvas wraps. Everything else I've done in prints are printed with

Re: Printing

I'll just jump in here and confuse things a bit.  You'll always get the same number of pixels from any given camera, but the quality of the pixels count too.  Higher ISO will have an effect. Usually all things being equal higher noise which will degrade image quality in any give size print.  w
