I knew I didn't want glossy, but the company i'm looking at using prints lustre or glossy only, and I wasn't sure if lustre was good or not. I would print on my own printer, but I want to print 12x12 and 12x8, so I can't

portfolio prints tend to get manhandled and seen under less than ideal conditions, so luster or mat is best to reduce reflections and fingerprints.

I would recommend DS Colour Labs, they have very decent prices and are used by quite a few professional photographers for prints that they sell. They include all the software and profiles you will need to ensure top quality results.
Here's the link to their site. - link

If your looking for a good 35mm camera. Obviously Pentax I've just sold my Z1P to SRS complete with extra grip and wrist strap. It's in great condition and I loved it but have given up on film now. I've also sold SRS my 645 with a collection of lenses including a leaf shutter lens. All in top condition. I'm sure SRS would do you a good deal. Good luck with your interview. CHEERS Vic.
Born again biker with lots of Pentax bits. Every day I wake up is a good day. I'm so old I don't even buy green bananas.

ProAm Imaging in Bradford have a very good reputation, I have not used them myself but of the two photography clubs I visit they both recommend them and the prices are apparently very good.
