What does that mean in reality? In the 2 examples below, I have cropped in from a full size file on a Canon 5d Mk IV which has an original image size of 6720×4480 (30.4MP).

I knew that when I took it it wouldn’t form part of my main portfolio, but would certainly work well for my Instagram feed. So all I had to do was get it sharp and in focus and I knew that the crop tool would do the rest.īut, what if you want to have the ability to print big? Well, this is where things get really interesting. In fact, if you think about where most of your big artwork is in your house, I would image it would be above sofas, tables, beds etc.īig prints are designed to be viewed from further away. This will automatically put you a meter or so away In fact, if you visit an art gallery, you will notice most people will view art from 1 metre or even further away. It is for this reason that if necessary, you can print your wall art at 150dpi. Of course the higher the DPI the better, that goes without saying, but you will get more than acceptable results at 150 or 200dpi. So as a final example I have a picture of a castle. I want to print it at 30×20” to form the focal piece for my lounge wall. That means that ideally I want 9000×6000 pixels. Well… that probably isn’t going to happen for most of us. Yes, the Sony A7R IV and some other cameras could make it work at 300dpi but not most. cropit a 'customizable crop and zoom' jQuery plugin Select new image Download cropped image What it is A jQuery plugin for image cropping and zooming. So, we will just send it to the printers with the highest DPI possible.īut that sometimes means we don’t use the optimum crop. Loads images locally via FileReader, and crops them using canvas. Designed to be extremely customizable via CSS. I want my image to look as good as possible and sometimes that will mean sacrificing a few hundred pixels but to me that is preferable. Remember, 150dpi will be fine for viewing from further away. This gives me double the amount of room to play with. So, if I know I can go to 150dpi I now only need 4500×3000 pixels – which the Sony A7R III/Canon 5D Mk IV can handle with room to spare.
