These days, it seems like just about all consumer electronics include
some sort of digital camera. It's never been easier to take pictures
and share them online, but when it comes to digital photo printing,
there may be a few issues that you should know about ahead of time.
The quality of the prints you receive will depend largely on the type
of camera that you use. It is important to know this ahead of time,
so that you can be assured that you will be happy with the finished
results.
Although camera phones are popular and are certainly capable of taking
decent enough images, these usually are not suitable for digital photo
printing. This is due to various different reasons, which we will
explore later in this article. If you are planning on using your
camera photo to take pictures that will later be processed by digital
photo printing, here's what you need to know.
First, the image quality for camera phones is usually much less than a
traditional digital camera. The majority of these phones use 1.3
megapixel resolutions, but you may be able to find phones that go all
the way up to 3 megapixels. This may look like a strange word, but it
refers to how many pixels go into a standard size image. 3 megapixels
equals roughly 3 million pixels per inch.
The more pixels you have per inch, the higher the quality of the
image. Using this example, a camera that uses 1.3 megapixels for a
resolution will produce images of lesser quality than one that uses 3
megapixels. However, even that may not be enough for quality digital
photo printing. It is best to use a camera that has a high resolution
and typically, camera phones just don't have this capability.
This is due mainly to their small size and limited capacity. Unaltered
digital image files can be quite large, and camera phones will have a
small amount of useable memory. If you were to store high quality
images on your phone, you would probably be limited to around one or
two. This is inconvenient, so most manufacturers use a lower
resolution. While this does allow for more images to be stored on a
phone, it does affect the results of digital photo printing.
This is the number one reason that camera phones just can't produce
images that are of high enough quality for digital photo printing.
Typically, a 4x6 print that was taken with a camera phone will be
blurry and virtually unusable. That same size print that was taken
with a regular digital camera will typically be much more clear and of
higher quality.
While camera phones are great for everyday photo taking and quick
sharing online, they really are not well suited to digital photo
printing. It is best to use your regular camera if you want to take
photos that will be printed later. You'll be assured of much better
results if you do.
