Where to get widescreen prints?

[hiroofheroes]

I recently bought a Panasonic lx2, which has a 16:9 ccd. When you choose the other aspect ratio's you lose resolution from the are of the ccd not being used.

The widescreen aspect ratio is great for shooting pictures of groups, and for displaying on my laptop/plasma.

However, its only just struck me about getting prints in widescreen resolutions.

Is there anywhere that will offer prints in 16:9?

Photobox does panoramic-size prints (not too sure about the aspect ratio), but the best way round your problem is to upload the prints in "letterbox" format, ie an A4 size print, with a white bar top and bottom as required. Think widescreen movie on a normal 4:3 telly.... trim as required.
