Introduction
to impressive turntable rollout photography systems for circumferential
peripheral photography of any round art object: vases, pots, bowls, glass,
porcelain, or any round widget. We will be announcing our new book of
Maya vase rollouts shortly.
 ENCAD
NovaJet Pro wide format inkjet printer
does professional job of enlarging a 5 inch section to poster size. Rollout
of a Maya vase from the Museo Popol
Vuh, Guatemala. With digital imaging technology this can all be done
in-house, with your own equipment. It is easy to learn, after all, we
taught ourselves to handle all this equipment. We are now using a Hewlett-Packard
DesignJet 2800 CP, 600 dpi (twice the quality of the Encad). For more
details on this capable printer, check out www.FineArtGicleePrinters.org.
For sample printouts of rollouts with the new printer,
click here (Tiquisate ballgame).
All the images here are direct digital
photographs taken with digital photography software by Michael Collette,
Better Light, which
modifies the Dicomed Field Pro to achieve seamless panorama and turntable
rollout capability.
ViewSonic 20 or 21 inch monitors sure help visualize a long-format rollout.
A 24" or 29" ViewSonic monitor would be even more practical.
Tabloid sized laser printers are now available from QMS, even full-bleed
(11.7 x 17.7 inches).
