Hi Everybody

Just want to check, for DSLR camera picture taken, what is the usual resolution as shown in photoshop? For me resolution is 72 using Canon 400D. I want to know your view without editing picture.

Regards

nothing, 72 is just the screen resolution.

Resolution and DPI are 2 different things.

And yes, most cameras use 72 DPI.

Thanks Catchlights and Rashkae, just cautious as my friend say his camera resolution is 180.

don't worry... many cameras set it at 72dpi as that's what most screens can handle.. but u can always convert it in photoshop coz the number of pixels will always be the same... it's just a matter of how many of those pixels are in 1 inch...

dpi =dot per inch..

doesnt matter 72 or 300 dpi because the total number of dot/pixels remain the same.
