I'm thinking of getting some of my images professionally printed (10x12 or similar) for my portfolio, and I'm wondering whether I'll need to alter my digital processing workflow to get a good result. I read somewhere that you should over-sharpen the image to get a good printed result, but experimenting looks costly! My camera is a 5MP Panasonic FZ20, original files are 2560x1920, and generally come out of the camera carrying a bit of noise.
I see caedes mysteriously hinted at 'other techniques' in the poster prints discussion thread - what are these 'other techniques'?
Any information/ useful links/ advice is most welcome.
