Highest quality photographic prints!

the key mark of lightjet prints if you ask me is its size! I've never known of pro shops doing lightjet prints for anything less than 15R cos its not cost effective. A lightjet machine is also flexible in format. Its good for panaromic enlargements if you ask me because you are charged by per square inch.
As to the issue of inkjet vs lightjet/dyesub, i dunno whats the latest technology around but i recently received a free complementary A1 print from epson and kodak printed by the companies themselves. The kodak/durst epsilon looked a lot sharper and nicer (subjective) and more accurate, than the epson 7600.

You mean lightjet is for enlargment rite? So do you know what is the cost of a lightjet printing? Thinking of doing a enlargment but if it is shot in jpeg, do you still think is still look good?

i have made enlargements from jpg before. Its not really the file format but more the pixel resolution that really matters. Call up instant digital, used to be 1.5c per sq cm i think might be mistaken but it can add up. I once made 1.3k worth of enlargements there with barret and lionellin. Also check with willyfoo since he intro me to the place.

I guess those prints from beautiful memories are usually Fujifim digital print and not lightjet prints, even though they use crystal Archive Pape? Can we really tell from a lightjet and pro photo lab prints?

You sure can tell the difference! Especially with larger enlargements.
