Has anyone made large prints with the M9?

What is the largest you have managed to print in high quality?

Thanks

I've made prints that are 27"x40" (image size) that are as good as similarly sized prints from scanned medium format 400 ISO negatives. I expect you could go larger, with a corresponding loss in detail, and that the results would still be as good as film. This is from M9 files shot at 160 ISO.

 

In fact, since getting the M9, I've given up shooting color film entirely, though I still use film for black and white work.

Not from the M9 (apart from in my dreams), but I've made a couple of very nice A2 prints from my M8. So the M9 will do very nicely at this size and more...

 

Cheers

I`ve made a few 24"x32" (A1) prints,the results are outstanding.I run the file through Genuine Fractals to enlarge the image and print on a HP Z3100.
