Talking with a friend who is known for his Platinum/Palladium printing and making enlarged digital negatives for the process. He is thinking of doing custom enlarged negatives and just starting to explore the idea. We talked about it a bit. I know some who would like do have them for their work but don't know if the numbers would be high enough to justify this as a business.

He has taught Pt/Pd workshops and written on the subject as well. He scans, enlarges and contact prints from the negatives and has it down well. The prints he makes are excellent. If he were doing it the savings from hit & miss, learning and a printer/inks may well be worth it for some. Getting a digital negative tailored to Pt/Pd printing without all the hassle would be worth it - I think - for some photographers.

At this point it is just an idea we are kicking around. Don't know if it will come about but it is a possibility. He is older and experienced and it would be a new venture for him.

Do you guys think there would be much interest in this type of service?
