Thanks all useful stuff, but think we have lost the essence of my initial "very novice" question re prints returning very dark

That's very informative; thanks very much. Toooo much choice!! I'll give the sample pack a try

Thanks - what does C-type technology that can't get even near sRGB colour space limits mean please??!! How would I get prints on Baryta paper using inkjet technology? Is this a service say Loxley would offer?

Thanks What does 100 cd/m^2. mean? Is that a measurement/metric that appears on the ios system?

I received an image back from Loxley and although the finish was good (basic service only) it came out too dark. I use a MacBook Pro and I have just calibrated the screen using the built in calibration tool. System Preferences > Displays > Color > Calibrate. Follow the instructions. You can...

Thanks to all for your help - have ordered a few from Loxley -

Thanks - i'll give that a go One more if i may? My images are saved on my drive in RAW. What is the best file to use to send them to the printers? I have opted to use Loxley and am using the ROES system, but am unsure what the best file is for compression vs quality

Thanks - i'll have a look The problem I've had to date is that after spending much care processing the image up to where i want it, i then order a print and they tend to come back very dark with dull colours, not representative of the image

By saying simply 'photos' I'm probably revealing my rather basic level of knowledge, but that is it. I take my photos in RAW and then process using iphoto - looking to bring some up to a decent size for framing etc

Can anybody please recommend a good online printing service? Many thanks

Thanks for all the help on this. Any ideas on the best place to get things like this valued and/or sold?

The top speed seems to be marked 1000 (see photo above). The lens is a 50mm f:1.8

Yes and yes Thanks - I've been looking at the online canon camera museum and it's hard to distinguish between the models - could be a IIIA from 1951?

That's not it - check the top of the film wind on nob

The lens is 50mm f:1.8
