Frequently Asked Questions



  • Can I reproduce an image from my digital camera?

    Yes. Many digital cameras capture images with a pixel dimension of 2000 pixels x 1500 pixels and up to (3 Megapixel to 14 Megapixel cameras.) That being said know however that in digital reproduction more is better there are limits as to how large you can print from one megapixel size to the next. Optimably the size range would be about an 8 x 10 for a 3 Megapixel 16" x 20" for 4, 20" x 30" for 5, 24" x 36" for 6 so on and so forth.

    In real life however you can eaisly not follow this scheme although image quality does dictate what is aceptale and not, and it is a personal choice.

  • Are my 35 mm slides suitable for reproduction?

    Yes. although like the above infomation on the digital states you can only go so big before seeing the quality level drop. To some extent each image on film or digital can be shot well meaning with opitmal lighting and such and look better than a poorly lit image subsequently when enlarging an image to print your noise from poor lighting also gets enlarged with a 35 mm slide you can print animage of about 18 x 24 with aceptable results.
