Poster boards by nature are made out of cheap paper. Archival equivalents might be had from Bainbridge, Strathmore or Crescent and are called backing boards but I've never seen any that are ...

Interesting, so they're using dye sub now instead of RA-4.

The norm is small prints are made using RA-4 (usually up to 8x12) and lager ones using an inkjet printer. The kicker is to find out if they're using OEM or 3rd party ink.

The Epson 7890 is a regular inkjet pigment printer. The P6000 is the modern replacement. Neither are dye sub printers.

I've never had this problem with any of the printers I've owned (Epson 7800, 9800, 9900 and Canon ipf6400 and 8300).

Learned this the hard way many years ago. I just don't leave paper in the printer anymore. Problem solved.

Matte paper is just difficult to handle. There is no easy solution I know of., but you can try the following to see if it helps: See if your printer software allows you to lower the ink density. A ...

I've puzzled over the same thing. It's certainly not a camera I'd ever buy.

The lighting is nicely balanced. But if you're wanting more resolution/detail try using Gigapixel.

I used Gigapixel AI to enlarge the SD1M file instead of Photoshop. The SD1M is a very good camera with excellent sharpness that enlarges very well in Gigapixel but the focus has to be perfect in ...

The SD1M looks fine when it's in focus: SD1M enlarged to match the D810 using Gigapixel

Easy to see visually as well. The SD9 shots have always looked more 3D and sharper than all other SD bodies. I suspected that was somehow related to the microlenses.

Are you using the ProPhoto RGB color space? If not you're limiting your gamut potential.

Due to your limited budget you've got two choices: 1. buy a used printer or 2. get a loan and pay it out over time but there are no "fine art" quality printers in your present price range. As for ...

That's incredibly bad quality. It looks like they've taken your file and downsized it considerably. Why I can't imagine. Obviously don't use Mpix.

1. To show max resolution you want to print it on glossy paper not luster/semi-gloss as the textured surface interferes with resolution. 2. You need to have it printed on an actual inkjet printer ...

Depends on what you're wanting. If, for instance, you're wanting a living room with the furniture in daylight colors but still showing the warm glow of 3200k bulbs in the lamps then you choose a ...

Your settings of 16 bit tiff using the Pro Photo RGB color space are correct for best quality. In PS/Lightroom the final size of your image is determined by the width and height settings. If ...

Unfortunately, they're on a HD that died some years ago (along with all of my original SD10 and 14 raws, before I understood the importance of having a backup drive). But they were all 16 bit tiffs. ...

Just know what my tests revealed. Try it yourself and see.
