Does anyone get their photos printed. If so, what service do you use? I have a few I would like to have printed to frame and hang on the wall. ETA: When you get prints, especially bigger prints, what settings and file exports are you using for Lightroom? Thank you |

I use my local camera shop (Bedford Camera in Tulsa, OK). I could upload tonight, and they would be ready for pick up the next morning by lunch time. I upload to their website in jpeg format. I know it's not the best but the results look pretty damn good for the few dollars I pay for each 8x10 print. I dream of buying my own high end photo printer (Canon ImageGraf Pro 310 or 1100) one of these days and printing straight from Light Room. But it's not financially in the cards right now. |

I have had 2 orders with MPix so far. The first was a few 8x10s. 3 from my d750 of landscapes from our trip out west, 1 was a beach family photo from the d750, 1 was a drone shot of a sunrise from my Air 3S and the last was a shot from my Samsung S23 Ultra. All turned out pretty good with just the basic packages, no add-ons. Second order was of some 11x14s of the kids in sports and a path though Acadia National Park. All of those were with the d750 and came today. They also look excellent. It does appear that 11x17 is probably the biggest I can push with the d750 and a standard size photo. Looks like any bigger and it will start to lose detail, depending on how far you are from the photo. |

anything bigger than 13x19 I use Walgreens, I get pretty good results. my home printer is a Canon PixmaPro 100. awesome printer. ink is stupid small and expensive. |

Oh cruel fate, to be thusly boned. Ask not for whom the bone bones, it bones for thee.

ProTip: Never pick a fight with a tree planter. He swings a hoedad for 9 hours a day, carries 30-40 pounds of seedlings on his back, and has 12-14 friends just like him hiding out on the other side of the junk butt pile. They will fuck your shit up.
| Depends on what size print I'm making. I use Mpix quite often. For really large prints, I use Pictorem, they do nice work. I think t hey are in Canada. They printed 3 for me in August that ranged from 24x36 to a 60x40 done in three panels, all on canvas and the client was very please. I've only used them for canvas prints so I can't speak about their others. |
