Re: Negatives, Enlargement???

I think the questioner was referring to analog printing via a "Photo Shop"
(ie. a lab), not the program Photoshop.   I think a 35mm negative can be
enlarged up to about 25x, in other words , a 24" x 36" print, perhaps a bit
larger.  And I guess the same magnification would apply to larger formats
as well.

On the other hand, a negative made from a photo would not be expected to
give you the same degree of "enlargability", in fact, I doubt that you can
enlarge much beyond the size of the print from which the negative was made.
