I will be doing a photo-montage mural (5-1/2 feet high) and am not sure what the best approach is r.e. scanning. Most of the images were shot with 35mm (B&W); I will have access to the negatives (not my own). Usually I think that scanning from the negative rather than a print is the way to go, but there are obvious limitations to such a small negative when printing this large. I'm not sure at what point a higher resolution scan of the negative would be pointless, and I don't know if there might be some advantage to scanning from a print instead (or a combination of both techniques).
Anyway, any ideas appreciated.
