10 Tips to Shoot Photos for Printing on Canvas at High Enlargements

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″.

” The Actor is a rare Rose period paint­ing from the win­ter of 1904 to 1905. It depicts an acro­bat that is the­atri­cally posed in a half akimo stance.
