About the Lumira Print you are ordering...
Each glossy Lumira Print begins as a traditional transparency--professional slide film--or as a raw digital file. (Chosen transparencies are scanned on an ICG digital drum scanner to convert them to digital files.) Photographs are then printed onto Fuji Crystal Archival Paper by a Chromira digital LED imager.
This printing method combines top digital technology with traditional photographic paper. Fuji Crystal Archival is a resin-based paper, unmatched in archival quality, considered the finest color photographic paper available and is the choice of professional photographers and commercial labs. Independent studies by Wilhelm Imaging Research show Crystal Archival the most fade-resistant photographic paper of all that are currently made, lasting six or seven decades before any noticeable fade; the nearest competing paper estimated to only last 15 to 20 years.
These Lumira prints, because they are digitally printed, have no image distortion, color shifts, or problems with edge-to-edge sharpness. These prints do not have the internegative loss of saturation and sharpness, and leave C prints--their traditional competition--looking threadbare and tired.
