Digital printing for mobile photographers


Hi
I am a professional mobile photographer using 35mm cameras and wish to venture into digital. I plan to offer portraits taken in a mobile studio in shopping centres printed on the spot.

I am hoping to get into this with out having the PC between the camera and printer! any ideas on what equipment would be suitable ....camera? Printer?....the largest I want to print on the spot would be
10" X 8" or A4.

Any suggestions are welcome thanks.

  I'm not an expert in this area but I do know that Canon has interfaces directly between their cameras and their printers. So you might look in that direction. I have a G2 that is a very nice camera and it has that capability. If you are looking more at an SLR then you might look into a D30 or D60 but I don't know if they have the same feature.

  Thanks Jeff for your comment and infact I am interested in the Canons as all my 35mm gear is Canon. I have been told that I would need the PC as Photoshop is needed to enhance and correct certain images. I to have research a little on the D30 & D60 and yes these are what I would be interested in.

I need the answer to what the best combination of camera-PC-printer would be. Then I have to work out costs to see if this will be a viable venture.

Thanks again Jeff.
