digital
fine-art print process
These prints are made using large format
film and modern digital methods to obtain image quality exceeding that
of traditional darkroom methods. First a large format transparency is
scanned to very high-resolution on a drum scanner. This is the same
procedure that is used in producing images for use in fine books and
calendars. The huge digital file created from this scan allows control
over contrast and color saturation not previously obtainable with
optical darkroom techniques. Once optimized this file is then printed
by a device called a Chromira - a very high end LED printer which
exposes Fuji Crystal Archive photographic paper with a combination of
red, blue and green light.
This process produces prints with superb color saturation and
sharpness even when printed to great size - a typical shortcoming with
traditional optical darkroom methods. This is also one
of the most archival methods of producing color prints. Independent
tests have shown that images on Fuji Crystal Archive Paper will not
exhibit any noticeable fading for at least 60 years.
Please keep in mind that due to limitations of the internet,
especially the necessity to use low resolution images online and
variation in monitors, that the colors you see on your monitor may
vary from those in the resulting print. It should also go without
saying that these fine-art prints will be significantly sharper than
they appear on the web.
