Innova Art

Truly Tailored to the Cutting Edge
Tone. Texture. Lustre. Substance. Absolute fidelity to the artist’s creative vision. Strength. Longevity.

This is the difference a great paper can make to a print. And this is the reason some of the world’s best-known digital artists, photographers and printers choose the Innova Art range of coated fine art papers and canvas.

Artist Richard Hamilton, photographer Douglas Menuez, Eric Kunsman of artists’ book studio, Booksmart Studio, USA: all choose Innova.

21st Century Company
Innova Art is different. Many fine art paper companies were founded centuries ago and while some adapted their existing products to take advantage of the switch to digital printing, only Innova Art – the first international supplier of fine art media to be launched in the 21st century – can claim to have designed papers and canvas specifically for digital fine art printing. Innova Art is part of the revolution.

CLEANING & PROTECTIVE PRODUCTS FOR CAMERAS AND ALL OPTICAL EQUIPMENT

Dust is the bane of every photographer’s life. Whether it is dust on the lens, dust on the sensor, the scanner or on transparencies and negatives. Dust can degrade optical equipment, ruin an image, add to retouching costs and damage valuable equipment. Whichever way you look at it, dust costs – period.

At Just we are dedicated to providing solutions to dust problems. We don’t promise to eliminate dust from your life, but we do strive to make it a manageable problem by providing cost effective solutions for a wide variety of imaging situations.

For digital SLR photographers we have safe, guaranteed products to help keep the imaging sensor clean. We also provide guidance, tutorials, product videos and telephone support to help you achieve success when cleaning the sensor.

With some companies charging up to £150 to clean the sensor in a digital SLR, it makes sound economic sense to manage this issue yourself.

We can show you how!
