Are prints from digital data as good as prints from negatives?
Years ago, the benchmark of an excellent photographic print was the liquid, chemical darkroom procedure. These prints were known as wet prints, because it described the process in which they were created. Often, today, digital images are still made as wet prints, or they are printed with photographic inks and dyes. Either way, the quality of the final products is indistinguishable, when printed on fine photographic papers with various finishes and paper surfaces.
