Canson Infinity

Started in France in 1557, Canson has a long history of making papers and today manufactures some of the finest inkjet photographic paper available today.
2015 sees them celebrate 150years of one of the worlds first patents for photographic paper which they took out in 1865 and is also marked by them achieving the 2015 TIPA Award for the best inkjet paper, Canson Photo Lustre Premium 310gsm, which they recently introduced.

Recognised by Epson as one of their approved third party papers under their Digigraphie programme, every Canson Infinity paper has been submitted for quality and print permanence rating by the Wilhelm Research institute and their Baryta and Platine papers have set new standards for fine art printing.

They specialise in selling the finest papers, printers and inks through their website  www.sheldonphoto.com,  and are used by many of the most successful photographic studios and photographers in Ireland and further afield. Sheldon’s knowledge is very extensive and he regularly gives talks for camera clubs.
