180 dpi will often look pretty fine, if that's all the pixels that you have. But there are size limits. Digital cameras are getting larger, but most still produce relatively small images. 3 megapixels will print 6x4 inches fine, and 6 megapixels will print 8x10 inches. Printing larger...
Yes, that's probably the negative view of pixel peeping. Of course, there's a built in assumption that the person is doing one and not the other. If you care about sharpness, you can't possibly care about ART. If look at pixels, you can't possibly look at the whole picture. If ...
Large images in pixels are needed to print large images in inches. For example, to print 8x10 inches at 240 dpi requires (8 inches x 240 dpi) x (10 inches x 240 dpi) = 1920 x 2400 pixels. It takes (1920 pixels / 0.9 inches) = 2135 dpi to create this image from 35 mm film...
Crop is not necessary to be mentioned but sizes of sensors are different so the size of 1cm object can be over whole image (1cm sensor) or only tiny thing in case of for example 8x10" size of film/sensor but still with that huge differences it should be taken with 1x magnification in...
many people pay too much attention to the number of megapixels in their cameras. in the early days of digital cameras, the megapixel count was in fact, very important. now there are cameras with 7, 8, 9 or more megapixels. if you want a good camera, you shouldn't overlook the quali...
Size your photo for printing If we want to print a photo at a standard 8x10 in size, we'll need to change its pixels in the Crop Canvas tool. Referencing the chart above, we can see that 8x10 inches is equivalent to 2400 x 3000 px. ...
Another question I had was that when they talk about a 1000 x 1000 pixel camera (for example) the images that come out of that camera are 1000 x 1000 pixels in COLOR. Does that mean that for each color pixel, there are actually 4 sensing elements in the sensor (usually ...
Even 1.5 megapixels will suffice. That said, most cameras as of fall 2005 are 3.1 megapixel or better. If you are planning to print pictures in sizes up to 8x10, experts recommend a camera with 4-5 megapixels, or a resolution of about 2500 x 2000. For prints up to 12x16, look ...
