Noritsu and IPI launch service for Sony’s Sweep Panorama Photo Delivery

Sony’s growing line of Cyber-shot digital cameras have easy-to-use “press and sweep” Sweep Panorama and Intelligent Sweep Panorama features that enable consumers to take full panoramic photos. This created a need for a convenient printing solution that could create the high quality prints worthy of this new photo format. IPI understood the need and partnered with Noritsu to deliver the solution.

“In making this unique service available, we aim to offer everyone the chance to create true high photo quality prints in a size that cannot easily be made by consumers,” said Brent Bowyer, Executive Director, IPI.

"At Noritsu, we strive to focus innovation so new services can be introduced that improve retailer margins and encourage consumer creativity and social expression.  Panorama prints can be produced on many of the existing Noritsu machines in operation at IPI member stores and other retailers around the world,” said Noritsu President and Chief Executive Officer Yukihiko Chayama.   Noritsu machines that can produce magnificent panoramic prints include the newly introduced, most versatile dry minilab, the D1005.  In addition, retailers with the following models in operation can also produce panoramic prints: D703, D701, QSS-37HD, QSS-35PLUS, QSS-35, QSS-34, QSS-32, LPS-24 PRO, dDP-421/621, DP-100.
