Would you rather........start printing at home or get a new lens?📷

@esrAsnataS 11 месяцев назад

That's a great question, I'd go for the lens if it was a good L lens, and just use printing services. I recently got a photobook printed with shots from my holiday this year, best thing I've bought in ages. Prints do look amazing. So now I've talked myself into the printer over the lens. 😁

I have printed my images for many years but only on a relative cheap A4 printer. About a year ago I bought the Pro-300 and its like a breath of fresh air, the prints are superb.

@andrewcroft2570 11 месяцев назад

This is the first of your videos I fully understand I used to own a printing business. We predominantly printed large-format digital wallpaper, however, we started providing a lot of prints for painters who would have their paintings photographed and we would print them on Hahnemühle paper. Absolutely fantastic video for people who are new to printing their own work. 🖼

Thank you for this comparison. Exactly what I needed and delivered in your usual down to earth style. Please don't ever give up doing this.

@GregShaw 11 месяцев назад

Great video. I went with the Pro-300 last year and love it. One really nice feature with the Canon Professional Print & Layout software is printing a test pattern print, so you can see which brightness and contrast settings give you the best print.

@myblackripleydog7452 11 месяцев назад

I currently print on the Pro 200 and am very pleased with it. However, I want to print 17", so the Pro 1000 is on my wish list. The $1300 SRP is daunting until you look at cost of ink for both. A replacement set for the 200 costs $105 for the eight 16ml carts. A set for the 1000 costs about $700 for 12 80ml carts. Subtracting the cost the ink from each, the net cost of the Pro200 is about $545 while the Pro1000 is $600. Plus you may have to replace the ink in the Pro 200 five to six times to match expected life from the original set that came with the 1000. I am on my 6th box of Canon ink. So I, in effect, spent as much running a Pro200 as the original cost of a Pro1000. Those savings might be mitigated somewhat by printing larger but my costs going to a lab from my A2 prints more than offset that marginal disadvantage.

Thanks Adam, I bought the PRO 300 because it suited my budget & available desk space. I’m as you said, blown away with it & admit to being guilty of not bringing my work to life by printing it out to ‘physically’ look at & feel it. Now after 8+ years as an amateur photographer, I’m kicking myself that I haven’t printed my work until very very recently. As soon as I got the first one off the printer, I was beaming like a Cheshire cat, & now I’m already getting enquiries & have made a couple of sales. Printing really does make a difference & brings your workflow to life & completes the journey. As you said here, I think it also changes your mindset when you are out in the field composing your images. Thanks for sharing, I’m a big fan of your work & your channel & subscribed ages ago. Keep on keeping on! Best, Nick

@lohithsamaga 11 месяцев назад

Hi Adam, Thank you so much for this comparison. It was very informative. As I am not a professional photographer, I cannot afford a dedicated photo printer. So, I use an Epson MFD with 4 inks to print on 180 gsm fine coated paper. The results are very good and the photos, as you rightly said, are a pleasure to watch. I have printed 100+ photos since I began printing last year. These days when I get some good photos there is an added excitement of printing and seeing it on A4. I think this is far better than watching them on smartphones or computer monitors. As a result of the growing numbers, I have started to catalogue them. This also helped me notice the seasonal changes by shooting the same subject over time. I very much doubt if these benefits can be realised and so easily with a digital archive. Thanks again!

I enjoyed the video Adam. I went for the Pro 300 a couple of months ago and very pleased with the quality of the prints it produces. I print mainly in Black and White.For which the Pro 300 is first class. I bought a load of paper test packs to find a paper that I like. The paper choice definitely has an impact on the finished print which is not to be underestimated. I personally went for fotospeed papers With NST bright white being one of my favourites.

@Firstmanphotography 11 месяцев назад

You’re right, paper makes a big difference and everyone seems to develop their personal favourites. I use a mixture of Canson and Canon papers at the moment.

@andrewlarking7492 5 месяцев назад

Black & white is where I’m heading, I also use fotospeed and am tempted by the 300.

@timscanlanphotography 11 месяцев назад

Hi Adam. Cracking video ! I'm still using my Canon Pro-10s after six years and it's still going strong. I always use Canon Lucia inks and the print quality is unbeatable, especially on Fotospeed papers. I sell a few prints per month, mainly A4 with some A3 as well and I can honestly say the cost of ink is reasonable, especially if I shop around. After watching your video I'd love to invest in the Pro-1000 and offer my clients A2 size prints but it feels a lot of money in the present financial climate. Maybe next year ! Thank you so much for sharing this really helpful comparison.

I also use the Pro 100s but had lots of issues with it printing with a magenta cast when using Lightroom Classic paper profiles. It was ok when using managed by printer. I asked Canon what was going on and they said it’s a software clash and suggested I used the Canon print app. I downloaded the app and Have had no problems since using this.

@mikeseale8198 11 месяцев назад

I'd already decided that the Pro-300 was probably the one for me and this review has helped to confirm that. Less saturated on glossy paper and truer colours for b+w is what I like. Thanks. The difference in initial purchase price will soon seem negligible compared to paper and ink costs.

@KRIreland 11 месяцев назад

I have the Pro 300 for just over 2 years. You can’t go wrong, brilliant printer! I don’t use it that regularly, but if I don’t print for 2-4 weeks I just run a print pattern cycle and it’s still working like new!

@user-kw5mg5mr3h 7 месяцев назад

Hello, Mr. Mike. I just got PRO-300 and very happy with the quality of prints. However, even when the printer is not printing, if I give it a little bit of nudge, as it shakes ever so slightly, it makes a "ta-ta-ta-ta-..." noise on the right side of the printer. Is this normal? Please let me know. Thank you.

@SteveP_2426 11 месяцев назад

Interesting video Adam. Canon had a cashback offer late last year so I went for the Pro300 as I felt it had the latest quality inks and I didn't have the room for the Pro1000. I quickly found it far better to print using the Canon Software than ON1 which I use for my normal editing. I also agree that A3+ has a significantly greater impact than A3. There is (well was in my case) a significant outlay initially in terms of inks and papers as even getting samples isn't the same as a larger print. I'm still learning what I like best for which images but really have enjoyed the 'journey' and really do agree that seeing your very own photo printed, framed and hung is soooo rewarding. I could probably use a lab and get prints 'cheaper' but the instant reward and being able to get quick feedback on your pocessing makes the extra cost worthwhile. Not tried pano printing yet!

@jamesmlodynia8757 9 месяцев назад

Prior to the Canon Pro 200 i owned the Pixma Pro 9000 MKII, i used for many years and made countless prints that still look beautiful, for the most part i find the 11 x 17 inch prints stikes a good balance of size and cost to frame with out taking a lot of wall space. The few times that I want a print larger than 13 x 19 inches i have the print made by the company that makes my frames. I started printing my photos 15 years ago when I started digital photography, it was the best decision I have ever made. Sharing my work with family ,friends and co workers opened the door to event photography. I started photographing the Memorial day events where I worked and that led to photographing weddings and many other events , some thing I never dreamed I thought I would do when I started digital photography 15 years ago.

@AmorLucisPhotography 11 месяцев назад

Really useful, as ever, Adam. Thanks for investing the time and money in doing this. I've been a very happy Pro-1000 user for a few years now, and don't regret it for the same core reason as youraself - wanting to print to A2.

@shanemorgan5932 11 месяцев назад

Great video. Thank you for making it. I just got back into photography about 2 1/2 years ago and would go to my local camera store that has a printing lab to get any prints that I wanted done. I figured that I had spent a fair amount there and after a period of research and asking the people in the store, I had them order me a pro 1000. Yes it was expensive (and heavy) but it allows me to make my own prints to give to family and friends. It is probably the only printer that I will ever purchase and I am more than okay with that.

I have a Canon Pro-200. As a hobbiest, as well as selling a few prints this printer is fantastic for what I need. The prints are excellent and I love being able to print at home and control the results I get. Overall the ink costs are reasonable. I love being able to print 13x19” as well and large panoramas. If you’re in the market and don’t want to break the bank this is a great printer.

@@Mrbeads I think it would be about $4 to $5 for a 13x19 print. A full package of all the ink cartridges costs about $120 and I can get about 20 or so prints out of that. Of course some inks are used faster than others so this is a very rough estimate.

How timely! I'm just about to order a Pro-1000. I am putting together an exhibition of 80 A2 prints and realized that there'd never be a better time to get off the mail-order-print train than now. It should pay for itself with this project alone and hopefully for years to come. I am a bit worried that the Pro-1100 will come out in a month, but I just have to remind myself that, like an older camera, a new release doesn't mean that the older model isn't still great at its job.

@gppl77 3 месяца назад

Its very interesting comparison, thanks for making this vid! Keith in one of his review compared gamut of 200 vs 300 and his measurements shows that due to the nature of the ink the 200 has wider gamut in warm tones, while 300 has wider gamut in cold tones. I was trying to figure out how this will affect an actual real world photo, and what you show exactly illustrates that - warmer colors are brighter and stand out, but there are less details in shadows on the 200. So cool!:)

@JohnDrummondPhoto 11 месяцев назад

@@garethmcfarland7244 it's fine for document printing as well as photos. But you might also want to try the PIXMA iX6820. It also prints up to A3+, takes five cartridges, and costs $179. I had that printer before the Pro 200. If you're mainly going to print documents with just the occasional photo, the iX6820 might be the way to go.

@scotty4418 11 месяцев назад

Enjoyed this Adam. Love using my Pro 10s but I will admit the option of using a print roll is appealing and the Pro 300 having that feature will definitely get me checking out the option of changing printers. I definitely would take the Pro 1000 in a heartbeat but I would probably keep challenging myself as to how much I would print in A2 against the option of getting A2 prints done externally, however the larger ink tanks are also attractive even if the majority of prints were A4, A3 and Pano.

I'm leaning toward using a luster paper, but I'm not particularly opposed to a glossy paper. Thanks, again for the info and I'll look forward to your reply.

@jimbruton9482 11 месяцев назад

Another good video Adam. I purchased the 300 a few months back based on an earlier review by you and I'm very happy with it. It fit the right balance of size, cost, and quality, and if I really wanted a print larger than A3+, I 'll use a photo lab (since I've owned the printer, I haven't used one). Canon's Professional Print and Landscape is my preferred software and runs as a plugin in Photoshop too. It goes without saying that these printers are designed for printing photographs. If you need to do general printing as well, I suggest a low cost laser printer for that work. Lastly a question - what is the brand/model of the paper cutter you use and does it meet your needs?

Yes, experiment with the different settings in Canon Pro Print and Layout, especially for Black & White. Also for B&W some papers perform much better on the Pro-200. I have found the Canon Pro Semi-Gloss SG-201 to be a great all-rounder for general use. B&W matte papers can vary greatly

@pauloamaral668 11 месяцев назад

Adam, this topic is very interesting and a good comparison you made. I am also of the same opinion as you, the feeling of printing our own photographs is excellent and gives a true sense of mission accomplished, in this case, a photo accomplished. however, the problem is the cost and profitability taken in this process, because, in my case, I don't even know how to sell photos. I also believe that less and less people are interested in buying photos. The question of printing, of having a printer and following the whole process, depends on the profitability obtained with the purchase of a printer, which will always be expensive. If the volume of "sales" does not justify the purchase, I believe that we can always order the printing in a specialized house. In this case, we are subject to the final result and do not follow the process. This question is a dilemma!

Love your work and channel! Thank you for making this content! Would you be so kind as to share the name of the cutter you used at 6:01, please and thanks! Looking for a professional grade paper cutter that is large enough. cheers mate!

I have a Canon Pro 300 printer. I would love if you do a RU-vid video on how the print panorama.

I bought the Pro 200 today despite the fact that the Pro 300 is *heavily* discounted in my country now (less than GBP100 between the two). I decided to spend the difference on some Ilford paper instead. The first print to come out of it on A3+ was fantastic, and I can't wait to do more.

Thank you for this. Comparison videos are always helpful. My Pro-100 just suddenly decided to stop printing black and cyan on me, and after countless attempts to get it working again, I'm at a time of desperation where buying a new one might just be my only option. Sigh.. I will be breezing through your channel to see if you have any thoughts on the 100 vs others. If not, please do let me know! Thank you sincerely!

Great presentation! It's been years since self printing and I am getting into Iris Photography as a new business model and am not sure where to begin. I want to offer prints to those having their Iris photographed. There would be lots of cool shadows and lines as the highlight of such photos. I don't have the needs you do and wonder if you can think of a paper that would make an Iris pop with detail. I'm thinking luster for the most part. Thanks!

Still printing beautiful photos on my Canon PIXMA pro 9000 MK II . Unfortunately, no updated driver for the new Mac OS but I am still able to get high quality prints exactly the way I want (and sell) them. Getting the ink for the printer is something a bit of an issue but still doable.

I'm Upgrading from my Cannon ip8720 got it on sale for 435$US after tax. The color brightness was an issue for me on the 8720 I had to raise the exposure to get vivid images on matte paper and I heard when using the Pro 200 what you on screen is what is what basically prints out. I print posters for a hobby I do maybe 70-150 prints a year.

Hey Adam I have a question? How much do you charge for a photo print color ?? 13X19 and a 17X22?? Just curious or if you can make a video thank you

I currently have a working pixma pro MarkII 9000. Canon stopped supporting this printer so it won’t print with my new Mac after I updated my firmware. I worry that if I buy the Pro 1000, it won’t be supported in a few years when they come out with a replacement. I don’t need to expense paper weights

I'm using ~ Smugmug ... At the moment. For prints etc etc ... But yes, would be nice to do the printing myself and sell direct.

I'm more than happy with my Pro-1000, and if you shop around you can very often pick one up for less than £1000.

have you tried doing glossy metallic photo paper

I had decided on the Canon Pro 300 in advance and your review confirmed it. The Pro 300 will move in.

I have the Pro-300 - a fantastic printer. You mention you can use rolls of paper, but I cannot find any rolls that will fit the width, being around 320mm. Which papers do you use? After all, I’d love to print panoramas at the maximum width.

Adam, I would be thoroughly interested in a video covering mounting options. One thing that has kept me from going to a professional printer is I know I would be printing a lot, but couldn't afford to have those prints framed. It looks like the prints you have on your wall may be more economically mounted on craft board. I'm clueless on what mounting options exist.

@ClaytonDowling 11 месяцев назад

I found many places sell precut mats for A3+, and mounting with linen hinge tape is fast and easy. Frames in those sizes are more challenging, but Nielsen-Bainbridge metal frames look nice and can be purchased online affordably.

@Firstmanphotography 11 месяцев назад

Much more economically....BluTac!! Not recommended actually, many fell down. The big print behind me is mounted on a board and I think looks really contemporary for huge prints. I still think frames are great too although it does get more expensive. Got a video coming up about metal prints too.

Are the Epson printers still competitive? Do they still have the problem I once read with clogged heads?

@Frodofoto01 11 месяцев назад

Useful analysis. I have a Canon Pro-1000, after miserable reliability (especially paper feeding) of my (2) Epson P900 (in contrast my previous Epson P600 was better built). In comparison with the P900, the Pro-1000 is built like a tank and hasn't jammed or broken down on me. However, it is much slower and it drinks ink, especially during cleaning/maintenance cycles. I am currently working out how much ink it actually uses, which is tricky as the Canon Accounting Manager does not record how much ink goes into the waste tank. I guess it uses about 50% more ink than the Epson.
