I would think that A2 would be about the maximum for a 6MP image.

Another vote for Tim.

Re 6 mp - depends how close you are going to view it from.

Thanks for the kind words chaps !

Canvas can be successfully reproduced at 150 resolution, so using Genuine Fractals for enlargement, a 6mb file should go to A1 and give a great result.

Drop me an email at tim@fluidimages.co.uk & I'll let you know.

Regards,

TIM

Another vote for Tim,

Great price, fantastic quality and as he owns the 'EU bubble wrap mountain' they'll be in top nick when you get them hehe

So stop wasting your time looking elsewhere and get in touch with him.

hehe Had 3 canvasses done at christmas and still not all the way through the bubble wrap.

Strangely not stressed about it though...


A great job though and my (now late) Grandfather was more than impressed with the canvas he was given. smile

For customer prints I tend to use www.photobox.co.uk and I have no complaints over the past 5 years of using them. The last canvas print they did for me was 60 x 40cm, mounted on wooden frame, delivered to customer, on time and in perfect condition. No interpolation required for the images supplied, just a 9mp Camera original (will accept less). Just upload the image, trim to fit & job done. Everybody happy.
