    To London Drugs, their print quality is great.:yesnod: :yesnod:

    The price is a bit higher here, but the quality is worth it.

    Re: Poll, Where do you send your photos for printing?

    Costco regularly, for everything up to 18" x 12"
    I have a good local lab, the staff care.
    I've got a reputation there now, and a professional printing release on file.

    They still call everything I take an F1 car, whether it's DTM touring cars, or Formula Renault, or Euro F3 series. I need to educate them a little more on that

    I also use SnapFish (used to be Pixaco until HP took them over) when they have special deals on 30" x 20".

    Pixaco were fantastic, low price, high quality and shipped from Germany for less than any UK provider. Then they were bought up and stopped shipping from Germany to anywhere else in Europe. The UK prices are of course more expensive, for no good reason.
    So I don't use them now unless there is a special on.

    Re: Poll, Where do you send your photos for printing?

    I send images to my local lab for proofing (sometimes even walmart), then I send them to West Coast Imaging in California for Chromira printing, my local lab for B&W printing on the K3 Epson's, or Elevator Digital in Toronto for Digital Cibachromes.
    --The camera's role is not to interfere with the photographer's work--

    --Cibachrome: It's like printing on gold.

    --Edit my photos as part of your commentary if you want to.--

    Re: Poll, Where do you send your photos for printing?

    Usually I print on either my Canon IP4300 or my IP6600D. Getting the colorspaces matching can sometimes be a pain (especially with AdobeRGB), but I am always impressed by the final result, great ink economy too. In the rare occasion where I send it out, I would send it to Digital Labrador - a local pro shop - they print with canon imagegrafs and the sorts.

    I am surprised, I thought a lot more people here would be doing their prints at home.
