large (WIDE!) prints of panoramas?
bugbear
that will print panoramic photographs wide?
I have a 5.4:1 image, with 3000 vertical pixels.
At the "normal" 300 DPI, that could be printed
10" high, and 50" wide.
Recommendations welcomed.

I'm in the UK, which matters, of course.

If I have any unusual size images that I want, I use my local printing
company. They do fairly inexpensive framed canvas prints. You must have
something similar near where you are.

Can you give a price for my example?

I can get a 20x20 canvass mount for about £40. That's it ready to hang on a
wall with the canvass wrapped around the frame. A few years ago I would have
paid over £100 for that. So, saying you wanted a 5"x20" print on canvass,
you would probably be talking no more than £20. If you just wanted it
printed on photographic paper it would be much less. You would only have to
e-mail the image to them. I would make the image the size I wanted on
Photoshop first so that I know exactly how it's going to look. Hope that
helps and good luck

You may get far more mileage out of placing several panos on a single
"canvas" of more or less standard rectangular size, then cutting them
yourself when you get back the, say, 50" x 40".

Maybe so but then you have to frame them yourself. The frames are just
inexpensive wood mind as the canvass covers it.

Not sure, but most high end photo stores catering to amateurs and pros
would have no problem with this on their roll fed printers.
(pedantic note: 5.4:1 @ 10" high will print 54" wide).
