Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon Compact Photo Printer Selphy CP730

Customer Review: Changed my correspondence life
Summary: 5 Stars

What do you call people like me? Photo-aspirants? I'm not a professional photographer. But I shoot images all the time, sometimes a dozen or two a day, trying to create a picture other people will find curious, entertaining, weird, surprising, silly, shocking: "refrigerator-quality," I guess.

Kris Hermanns told me her mother had a device like this, that printed postcards from digital cameras. I bought it on that slight recommendation. I had a new Canon PowerShot A620. I had a trip to France on the calendar. Kismet.

I've always used film. I was a film snob: I wanted beautiful images. The first photo that came off this Selphy CP730 printer blew me across the room. The color was intense, perfect, gorgeous; and in my hand in less than a minute, printed on glossy stock with a postcard back. I compared it to a film print and couldn't tell the difference. It was this printer, in fact, that convinced me that digital photography was as good as film. Not just "as good as" -- better, because of the control you have over color. Anybody want some aging, unexposed film? I've never gone back.

My system (which I sometimes pack up and travel with) includes my Canon digital camera, the Selphy printer, my MacBook loaded with iPhoto (which allows me to manipulate). It's a seamless, no-issues production process. I often pump out a half-dozen curious images a day, to send to friends, colleagues, family. It keeps me in touch with them at low cost. When we have our big summer party, I'll also use the Selphy to print out the invitations (created in Photoshop, so I can add text).

I sent a Selphy to my sister-in-law, Aimee, who IS an art and professional photographer; and she loves it, too.
