Julian,

That is a very stiff price. Please let us know how you get on with the inkjet negs and printing. I would really like to see more on the list than just quads.

  Martin, I've looked into these. The problem is cost - at around 150USD the
  market around here won't stand the hike. The max i can sell a 10x10" print
  in Spain for is 500USD, gallery takes half, I pay framing...
  I am going try the inkjet method though. I have the film on order.
