Photoprint parrot
To give you a chance to investigate print quality yourself (colors, contrast, sharpness, half-toning) DC shows a scan of the blue/yellow parrot. Click on the pictures to compare qualities.

To assess the degree of accuracy and the rendering of skin tones the lab shows you a clipping of the Fuji-photo and the small eye in the center of the DC-photo.
