Doing Digital Photography Prints
In this transition phase of analog to digital photography,
everyone knows the difference on how each images is processed
into a nice print. For analog photography, the negative (film)
is developed into photos in small shops called developing
studios, low-end or high end, available some walks away from a
nearby establishment.
They come in cheap price for every piece of shot but they come
expensive in rolls. This is the conventional way of
accomplishing photography. Nowadays there is digital camera
mania everywhere! Who would not want private photograph shots
from a handy dandy digital camera, where printing is done at
home at one's convenience?
Convenience and privacy are the perfect words for digital
photography. The question is how convenient is it to produce a
copy? About privacy, there is no doubt, when you take a shot
with a digital camera, it does not have to go out of the house.
All you need is a printer. When you need a printer, the array
of other needs will start to fall in line one by one because it
takes the following to create you own printing of digital
photography. For a good digital photography printing, you will
the following:
- A high-resolution digital camera with at least 2 mega-pixel
resolution
- A stand-alone digital printer (no need for a computer)
- Fully loaded personal computer
It goes to show, processing digital printing at home is not
cheap. The mania is only applicable to those who have PCs at
home. Let's say you have all the equipments for digital
photography printing, the next requirements are quite complex
than it seems.
Digital cameras are capable of deleting undesirable shots at
once. There is no more worry for wasted film for bad shots. Now
it is time to transfer or load your images to your PC.
At a subdirectory you will see the photos transferred into
digital files commonly in JPEG or RAW format. In the future,
this will change. The setting and configuration of your digital
camera will greatly affect the output you expect.
The very important aspect to be understood when doing digital
photography printing is having knowledge about RESOLUTION. What
you see in the computer monitor is not what you will see in the
printer. This is overwhelming for beginners. Dot representation
or pixels comprise an image.
At minimal requirement, a setting of 300 dpi (dots per inch)
will already make a good print. For better prints, resolution
must be higher. Expect the computer to slow down, assign a
realistic values.
