Where can i go to get prints of photos taken in a 16:9 aspect ratio?

Spudgun · 6 Sep 2008 at 23:00

I've just come back from a month log tour around the states and have taken some amazing photos of places like the grand canyon and monument valley in a 16:9 aspect ratio (as this scenery really cries out for a 'widescreen' look). However, i'm having a bit of bother finding someone who will print photos in this aspect ratio and my home printer just won't do them justice.

Any suggestions for anywhere that will print them out for me?

Many thanks for your help

Photobox prints them to size, so does Togsprint.

They both do custom size, this one is 600mm across, 362mm tall.

That picture has to be one of the best wedding photos ever.

Even though you can't see the groom properly, it's got a marvellous feel to it. Much better than your average "Stand here and smile" wedding photo.

Great photo. One of yours? Also like how you put your iphone subtly in the pic

It is good that you can't see the groom.

That way, when she re-marries, she can use it again AND still have her figure and youthful looks.

LOL, wedding photos, the bride is always more important, if her face was on the other side and you see the groom instead, i don't think it will work.

That is a fantasic wedding shot- so much expression in the faces

Photobox have done me well so far

well i dont know how much photobox will charge you for a photo of that size but i bet it wont be cheap. is that a photo you have taken yourself and are the others you need that good too, the reason i ask is in the long run wouldnt it be cheaper to get a printer that would do them that size for yourself, your obviously good and if u need a lot that size do them yourself always cheaper. i recently bought an epson r1900 a3+ printer which can do a max print of 13" by 10 metres using roll media, absolutely excellent quality as i sell enlargements to friends and family, 399 quid for the printer.

I think my print was £13, the frame material + Labour + P&P however pushed the price to £82.

hmm reasonable i suppose dont know how much i could do a print like that for as ive never been asked to do a panoramic/wideangle yet, then again that size of yours is 36mm taller than i can do, so not worth trying to price it up.
