Also you need to study what kind of compression algorithm is being used. |

I've seen quality 30X20 prints out of a 5MPix Olympus E-1. A travel/tourism shooting acquaintance of mine has had 30 FOOT banners up on the walls of Skydome, taken with his Canon 20D. You have to start with a quality shot; good camera, good lenses. from there you can up-scale to ridiculous levels. A little 5mm sensor with a 7.5mm lens just doesn't cut it, especially not when the 'camera' has been tweaked for consumer style output (over-saturated, over-sharpened).

An older camera I used to have had a compression routine where pixels close to each other would be forced into the same color. Even if you selected the "Fine" setting.

![]() Very,very good so far...although I apparently don't have the correct camera...J/K! As far as I can tell the pics look really good,heck I haven't even used my Picassa,Photoshop,Kodak or Canon programs to fix anything yet....I'm just printing them straight up and they look ok to me. As far as I'm concerned for $35 (after rebate) I don't see how I could have gone wrong! |
