Which Photo Printing Service Should You Use? | Mpix vs Darkroom Tech vs Printique
Hey there! Me again. In today's video I am comparing some test prints from a few different popular photo printing websites to see which I like the best. The photo printing websites I am comparing in this video are Mpix, Darkroom Tech, and Printique which is Adorama's printing service. If i'm being honest, after doing this test I was perfectly happy with the photo prints I got from all of these websites and I would be happy to use any of them, but they each had different strengths that are important for you to consider before making a decision about who to use to print your photos. Also, I'm happy to announce that I have just opened my very own print store! So, if you enjoy my work, make sure to check out the store and see if there are any photos you might want to have on your walls! I hope this video was useful for those of you looking to print your own photos. I'll see you next time. Bye now!

I got a print from MPIX and it’s very color accurate to what I had in mind and what I had edited. The clarity especially since I got the 60” x 40“ print blows me away. Maybe it’s just the way picture files work on my iPad or on my phone I’ve done some pixel peeping and zooming in on them and compare it to the size of the print and on screen it does not appear to be as clear as the actual print itself. I am again blown away by the quality of the print.. I also like the way it looks in the frame that came with it. I did order it printed and mounted in a frame, and the quality of the entire thing is just amazing.

Congrats Reimann! This was a great comparison for people looking to print their own work, and now all the tweets make sense! 🤣 I think you also made the right choice with your decision, those prints came out rather nicely, I would say! 👏

This picture was taken on Fuji Pro400H which is discontinued. I would recommend starting with something like Kodak Ultramax 400. It’s easy to find and pretty forgiving!

I’m glad you found it useful!👍🏼 I bet local shops are where differences become much more noticeable! I would imagine the printing equipment and processes these services use are very similar to each other while local shops may differ in how they print and what they use to print

Hello! Should I also apply your review for standard photo prints (4x6s)? Ever since my local Costco, Target, and (most) Walmart closed their in-person photo print stations of my childhood, I have no clue where to turn to. My iPhone 14 Pro Max captured some awesome photos on my recent EuroTrip. All I wanna do is print standard photo prints (4x6s) & posters (RIP Aaron Bros.) to hang in my room. Any tips on where I can order high quality print jobs? Printque? I'd appreciate you advice. Thank you! :)

@ReimannPembroke 18 күн бұрын

Hi! I think any of these should be able to make decent 4x6 prints. It's just a matter of what type of paper and colors you like. I would maybe get a test print from a few different places and pick your favorite :)

@@ReimannPembroke So when you sent your prints off, were those just your normal edits that you did on your monitors or even your laptop ? and if so, how accurate did those prints look compared to what you saw on your actual screen when you were editing them ?

please comment on EASE of working with their websites/updloading images/options/and seeing what you want before placing order. EXample Printique site will not allow you to directly upload photo from your computer ?
