When you get the print please tell me if there is any pixelation (sp?). If it is real glossy and a CLEAR image at 4x3 I will take two of them. If it is real grainy that large let me know and maybe we can go a little smaller.

I bought dome wall posters for my shop and half of the large ones are so frikken grainy I do not want to hang them. :icon_cry:

Nio problem Kenny.... the file "should" be able to make a ~6x4.5 ft poster if i wanted as it's 5.16 mb and 1600 x 1200

hi gloss will be an extra 2 or 3 bucks but is also UV protectant

If you have a scanned image and it is 300 dpi, you can't enlarge it without some pixellization.

If you have a 600 dpi scan file, you can enlarge it to double the size

If you have a 1200 dpi scan file, you can enlarge it to riple the size (and maybe even four times the size) comfortably.

And there are even higher resloutions available on many scanners made today.

I used to photograph racing yachts and other yachts, but I used print film 100ASA/ISO, then got 16x20 enlarged contact sheets for samples, then had enlargements made.

Unless I used 25ASA/ISO slide film, I could not enlarge any 35mm Nikon images without graininess (which is roughly equivalent to 'pixellization."  So I used a Pentax 6x7 which gave me 54mm x 70mm negatives.  From those 54x70mm negs, I could enlarge photos to 30" x 40" without graininess.  Those photos sold for $350-450 per copy back in the early 80's.

Good luck with your photos.  I hope this information proves useful.  : )





These days I have and use three different Nikon digital cameras.  The biggest one is a D70S.  It only goes to a maximum resolution of 200ISO but is great camera with interchangeable lenses.  I use two ED lenses, an 18-70mm zoom lens and a 70-200mm zoom lens.

The middle camera is a Nikon Coolpix4500 which I use mostly for macro photography around my desk and office. The macro setting allows me to focus as closely as less than 2" for closeups of smalll objects, like items I intend to sell on ebay.





The last Nikon I purchased is a Coolpix 7900 that goes down to 50ASA/ISO and gives me photos I can enlarge somewhat.



I also use a scanner, mostly for flat photos, pages, etc.
