  • I don't know them but I'm certain they will not be scanning your 36 individual negatives for £12.

  • Dredge but I went in today and...yes they will. Guy confirmed that they'll scan 36 seperate negatives at 13mb files for £12. They won't mix formats so I'll probably just get 35mm scanned and printed for now. Think about some yuuuge 6x9 prints another time...

    Would a 13mb 35mm scan print to A4 without looking gack? Obviously personal taste but is there a rule of thumb?

  • they will

    great!

    Would a 13mb 35mm scan print to A4 without looking gack?

    Short answer: yes

    Long answer: YMMV, "it depends" - on your expectations, on the quality of the scanner (shit scanners can give you big files, but they look shit), on the method of printing, on the distance between your eyes and the print (holding it in your hand or it being up on a wall 2 meters away) etc. etc.

  • Would a 13mb 35mm scan print to A4 without looking gack?

    Yeah, absolutely. I print 'medium' 3089 x 2048 Noritsu scans at A4 regularly on my inkjet and they look fine on my wall.
    I've printed the same scan at 6x4, 7x5 and A4 and the image isn't obviously falling apart at A4 compared to the smaller sizes.
