Epson sell A3 width 10m rolls for about 20-30 quid I think - and I'm sure other manufacturers make it as well

After my shed, and a 24" monitor - an A3 printer (Epson R1800 perhaps) is next smile.gif

How ironic that after the fervent anticipation of a panorama from the summit of Husband Hill, Spirit's definative panorama may end up being one from the bottom of Inner Basin.

Consider that your average monitor is 70 - 90 dpi, then at a viewing distance of anything more than about 3ft, 150dpi is serious overkill smile.gif

Doug


Well, printing 3 megapixel images at 5"x7" is considered quite normal, and it's 300dpi.
And you might want to see the details when you move closer.

Anyway, 190cm width is a perfect fit for my wall. smile.gif

Nico:

No idea - I'd expect it to be more-or-less the same as you usually get. Inkjet printers don't suffer from the same memory limitations as page printers (or at least not in the same way) so the picture size is probably not very important.

You've got me looking, too... ...sadly, my trusty HP P1000 doesn't do rolls, but my daughter's new A3 photo printer most certainly will, hehe.

Ant103:

True - but any discussion that encourages them guys of the panoramic persuasion to get out and create more beautiful panoramas as seen from this very spot is well worth suffering through!

Opportunity will probably have arrived at and done a good bit of exploring at Victoria. Spirit's going to be in one place for a good long time.

yet more off-topic printing-stuff (hit me cool.gif )

Thanks again Bob, I'll let you know how it turns out.

I'm starting a new job in a few weeks, at the town's printing office...

I hope to learn some interesting stuff there..and test some machinery tongue.gif

Could you test some machinery for me too? 2.2 meters long will just cover my wall.
Thanx, Nico. smile.gif

The kind of movement of Spirit will be changed from horizontal to vertical doing more MI, researching, miniTES, Mossbauer, x-Ray spectometer measurements and atmospheric, geological and aeolian observations. No horizontes, no explorations, no roving. Hence, at the end of winter, around the Low Ridge Heaven will be the best studied place of Mars. smile.gif

Here's the latest L7 then...



No full res version again, but if there was, then at 150dpi it'd be 2.1m x 85cm smile.gif

James, do you think they will back-fill the many lost segments of recent photos? And, what do you think is causing the increase in the number of incomplete images?
