Leading photographic printer Pixel Perfect is retiring its Durst Lambda 131 large format digital printer as part of plans to relocate the business from its inner Sydney location.
Pixel Perfect in Chippendale, Sydney
“We will be relocating in the coming months to a new destination that we can almost confirm, but not quite yet,” the Chippendale, Sydney-based company told customers. “We plan to stay as close as possible to our existing location (within 500 metres if all goes to plan!) so as not to disrupt you, our loyal customer base.
“As a result, we will soon be retiring our C-type printing processes, both the mighty Durst Lambda and our Noritsu minilab processor, both still in great working order, but proving to be an unviable process to relocate and continue with.”
Backlit soft signage is now replacing most Lambda prints and is non-photochemical.
“We are planning to shut down our Lambda, the last one still running in the country, at the end of this month, so if you have been wanting to get any C-Type or silver halide prints done, now is the time to get cracking as this will not be possible in our new location," the company said.
Hahnemuhle photo rag metallic “Why print Silver Halide? It's the last true photographic process using light-sensitive photographic paper and chemicals. Think Analog, cassettes, records, and film. The ability to create beautiful true photographic prints on Fuji Pearl Metallic and Fuji Flex, papers that inkjet printing cannot compete with. Fuji Flex is used in the best galleries around the world and we can do it right here in Sydney.
“It will be your last chance to use this process anywhere in the country, so get your orders in this month. for more information on the Lambda click here.
“Once we are relocated we will continue to offer unrivaled fine art printing services on a wide selection of the best cotton papers on the planet, primarily from Hahnemuhle and Canson, along with other premium suppliers."
Pixel Perfect was founded over 20 years ago, “created by professional photographers for professional photographers.”
