Hi,
I’m new in big format printing. I need some help.
I have a Canon 5D and I need make some 40'' prints for a gallery.
I will use CS3 for interpolation and print, Nik and Photokit for raw sharpen and print sharpening. Epson 9800 printer.

What do you suggest?

Print @ 180 ppi using the less interpolation possible?
or

Print @ 300 ppi using the interpolation needed?

or
What?

King regards,
And sorry my English

You can see a little movie with the photos:

You kinda defeat the purpose of the forums to post the exact same question in two different places...I suggest that people NOT post to this thread and only post to the thread in Printers, Paper and Inks to keep the discussion consistant.

True enough,Jeff, but if you're not going to dignify the original poster with an opinion
regarding his question why bother posting a response AT ALL.

So people know to post there and not here?

Exactly...and the fact is, if the poster had bothered to look in the forums, there have already been recent discussions about this same topic...which also defeats the purpose of posting a new thread.

Which leads me to question why you bothered to question me? Got a feather up your butt bud?

:~)

Because I misread the time delay between your postings on the two threads and thought
it wasn't a particularly civil way to respond to the question. My bad. Please accept my
apologies.

Got a feather up your butt bud?

Apparently.
