Photo & Video in Merivale Mall will give you photographic prints off any digital source you can throw at them. As long as no adjustments are needed the cost is the same as standard reprints, I think. They can also do scans, for a price. I think their kiosk can handle CD-RW now as I saw them installing a new drive a couple of weeks ago. Anything they can't do (big prints, drum scans, etc) they can outsource to Imagelab which is very handy for those of us who can't easily make it there during working hours. http://www.photo.co.nz/ I tried a large-format inkjet print at Ken's a couple of years back. The result was pretty poor so I never returned. I wasn't particularly impressed with the inflexible pricing system either. Hopefully they've improved things a bit since then. > Also looking to rent/barter time on a quality film or flatbed scanner. I'd offer for prints and medium/large format slides but I'm still having a spot of trouble with colour management. Since its a rainy day I might have another look at it...
