<p>this is a really great question - i've been wondering the same thing. i was hoping that i could ask the same question - but with a bit more specifics.<br>
could i print up to 5'x4' using 35mm? I know that technically it's possible - but i'm wondering what would be the method by which to do so?<br>
Would it be better to work from negatives, or from slides? Oddly enough, I'll be starting from digital and having the files transferred to film.<br>
I'm thinking of artists like bill henson or ryan mcginley - both shoot 35mm and print rather large.<br>
I'm aware i'll get lot of grain - but i rather like that. if you've seen a bill henson in person, they look more like paintings than photos, and the effect is rather stunning and dreamlike.<br>
but yeah, pros, cons, ideas on how to approach this?</p>
how big can I print from 35mm film?
