6x7 medium format vs digital SLR

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm getting more inquiries from clients who want to have large pictures of their products, around 30x50 inches, even more. One of them want the pictures in backlit material. Now my questions:

Is it possible for a digital SLR to produce such large photos -- clear and sharp? What is the maximum enlargement?

What about using a 35mm negative or transparency for such large prints? Is current printing technology capable of doing such, or should I use, instead, a medium format 6x7?

I've heard rumors that a 35mm negative frame can be scanned in a special, high-end scanner, resulting in super large images that are not grainy, but look like those made by medium or large format cameras. Is this possible? Is this the reason why many photographers are selling their 6x7s?
