I don't have a scanner but I will go to the library and just scan it there. I will surely let you all know the results! I can't wait much longer! This is really killing me!

I would just send one in LP. Try it out with an 8X10. They said that their buissness is falling and they only print two days a week now. Maybe we can all help them along.

UPDATE: Hi guys...I finally got my Ilfochrome back (with a full refund because they felt so bad they took so long because they were having major equipment problems) and the print is STUNNING! I seems to glow hanging up on the wall! I really, really, reccomend having one made!.......

Nice one! I've been looking forward to getting a Cibachrome / Ilfochrome print done ever since I heard about it. I am just waiting for the right picture. If I ever start selling photographs they are going to be done on Cibachrome without a doubt. A 100% optical process will look very unique in this day and age.

I agree with you. I have not ever sold a single print, but if I do, I am going to try like hell to make sure that they are all printed optically so that they will stand out from the others.

Nothing like an Ilfochrome/cibachrome print..... all I shoot is kodachrome and hand print my own cibachromes, as I learned how to do them around 1982 when I was in art school. Personally I have found them easier to do than black and white. Then again I don't shoot much B&W any more and have been doing cibas for over 25 years.

prints since that media was first available. Nothing like an 8x10 Cibachrome print, or a Kodachrome projected on my 6'x5' Dalite screen. Best regards, /Clay

I am about to give them a order for a 30x40 from a black and white slide / dr5 process, shot in 120. If this looks like I think it will, I might be giving them more work...:-).
The print is going to have to sell for a few grand though...

I can't wait to see how you like it! By the way, I believe that you now have a darkroom? Freestyle sells black and white positive paper for printing black and white slides. You may want to give that a shot too.

Freestyle does indeed sell a B+W positive paper made by Efke. It is a fraction of the price of Ilfochrome. But I don't know how good it is, or whether it is any better than scanning and printing digitally. It would be worth a try, though, as it would certainly be a MUCH cheaper option for optical prints from dr5 slides.
Speaking of dr5, you've got to love it. I can't wait to get my latest slides back from them.
