I have a friend that runs a digital printing service - they have quoted for me to do a calendar. I'll pm his email address.

I had the local Xerox shop in Hobart print some for me last year. I printed about 10 copies and from memory they charged me about $18 per copy. A4 size, 13 months (I included Jan 2007) plus cover back and front (200gsm) with photo on front cover and each month, fairly thick paper for the months (about 120gsm from memory), clear plastic over front cover page, spiral bound.

I was pleased with result and price and will go back again this year.

Hope this helps
Cheers
John

I've been thinking along the same lines.

I haven't used these guys http://www.myphotofun.com.au but might be worth a look.

I was thinking it might be easier to have the prints done on A4 paper ( maybe and not Photographic paper. But I don't know what the quality will be like in the end result.

I've already found a Photoshop template for next year. I'm looking forward to other DLSR users thoughts.

Cheers
