Was wondering what the largest print size you guys have printed from a 1D Mark III raw file?

Well, since I've done stellar 20x30's with a 6MP Digital Rebel... one would summize that you can print that large or larger with 10MP. =o)

24x36 here but could go bigger

I decided to do a test print about 4 months ago at a local photography retailer. they were demo'ing a canon 6100 and said to bring in a print. Well, I pony'd up and brought in a 25" x 65" group photo. Man was I impressed when it was done, so impressed we bought the damn printer. It didn't hurt that they threw in a rebel T1i, 2 100' rolls of paper & 50% our first 3 ink purchases. On top of that they displayed it in store for the next week while continuing to demo the printer. When they were done, I called the client, had them come over for a surprise and showed them the print. Told them the story and sold it to them for $300. I know that is low, but they never would have bought it in the first place unless I made them a stellar deal. No skin off my back.

Anyways, as to the OP, I guess you can say that you can print files 24" x 65" no problem. It was a tad bit pixelated, but you had to be at least 4 inches away to see it, and no way anyone is going to be that close to a print that big.

When I had a Mark III, I sold 2-3 24x36 canvas wraps, all looked phenomenal.

Thanks for the feed back!

I don't really make prints from my files, but to create albums. Large, double spreads with one photo; no problem at all. Can't wait to get that 1D IV

I haven't sold any wedding prints this large, but many 24x36" golf course prints made with this camera. This one in particular I remember just looking beautiful at that size:

Chris that shot is awesome!

holy crap, what a shot! So, how did AF do with catching up on those golf balls?

Other than the sensor size, the 40D is very similar to the 1DMKIII. Same file size, Digic III, etc. I own both cameras and can say that the 1DMKIII files are a little bit better, probably because of the space between photo sites, etc.

Anyway, the reason I went into all of that is to illustrate that you will have no problem going 40x60 or more with the 1DIII. The image below was made with my 40D and hangs 40x60 in my living room on a gallery wrap. Sweet!

Here's a 30x40 inch print from the older brother the 1DMII..I haven't printed any large prints from the MIII.
