    Question LODIMA with digital negatives?

    All the excellent reports on M&P's Lodima paper makes me want to make some prints. Unfortunately, it is contact speed, and I don't have any negatives of the sizes desired.
    10 Years ago I bought Dan Burkholder's book Making Digital Negatives for Contact Printing, but it seems like a process too complicated for me, and besides I don't have a digital printer large enough. Perhaps there has been some simplification in the intervening years, but even so...?
    My question: are there Service Bureaus "out there" who will make the negatives from my Photoshoped files for me?
    Thanks

    I HAVE used them. They are fantastic. MUCH better than ANY inkjet negative I have ever seen. I use them for silver only.

    And, yes, I have seen Dick Arentz's work up close.
