What is the maximum print size of an image that will retain perfect image quality in a canvasCanvas is an extremely heavy-duty plain-woven fabric used for painting surface, typically stretched. More information about canvas you can find at www.Gicleestore.com print?

This depends on a number of factors like exposure, illumination, camera shake, and resolution.
But a simple thumb rule will give you the idea about print size from your digital image. Just divide the image length in pixels by 70 and you will get the approximate print length in inches, and similarly for image width. So if your image size is 2800 pixels by 2100 pixels, you may expect an enlargement up to 40″ by 30″.
The megapixel count of your camera too can give a rough approximation of the highest print size at good quality. A 5 megapixel camera, with an image size of 2580 pixels by 2048 pixels, will give you a 36″ by 28″ print at most. For a 7 MP camera (3072 pixels by 2304 pixels), the print size can go up to 44″ by 32″, whereas a 10 MP camera (3648 pixels by 2736 pixels) can let you shoot photos for prints up to 48″ by 40″.
