Photo resolution help

How can I find out what the resolution of scanned photos are? I looked in properties and that sort of thing, but I want a DPI number (I have to submit a photo for an essay contest, and they want at least a resolution of 300 DPI). Is 300 DPI particularly good quality? How can I ensure that the things I scan are good enough?
Thanks!

First off, it's PPI not DPI. [DPI is just a meaningless printer spec.]
A scanned image would typically not have a PPI value assigned - although a particular scanner might assign it's sampling resolution. What setting was the scanner on?
You could email me an image check if you like - colin_walls AT yahoo DOT com

    When you place a Snapfish order from the Live Photo app, you will receive an order confirmation from Snapfish to your email address.  Review that email to confirm your order and contact Snapfish if your order appears to be late or does not arrive, or you have questions about the quantities you receive after your order arrives.   Check your spam folder if you don't see the Snapfish order confirmation email in your inbox.  If you need assistance from Snapfish and cannot find your confirmation email, here is the US Snapfish Help and Support page.   
    What iOS devices support Live Photo?
    The iPhone, iPad2 and later, and iPad Mini, and iPod Touch 5th generation on iOS 6.0 and above.   The app runs in 2X mode on iPad devices.  Currently, HP Live Photo is supported in the US in English only.  
    Do I need an iOS or Android device to both create and view Live Photos?
    Yes.  Currently Live Photos may only be created and viewed on iOS or Android devices at this time.
    Can I use any video in Live Photo?
    You may use any video recorded on your mobile device using the video function, up to 45 seconds in length.  If the video is longer than 45s, the HP Live Photo app will allow you to select a 45 second or less segment from the video.
    Where are the Live Photo videos saved when I create a Live Photo?
    The videos for your Live Photos are saved over the internet to the cloud.  The original video on your device is not affected or modified in any way.  HP Live Photo is not a video backup solution, so be sure to save images and videos using your own storage solutions.   The live photo videos are not saved to your Facebook account. 
    When I share a Live Photo via email or Facebook is the video included in the email or post?
    No.  Only the Live Photo is included in the email or Facebook post.  The video is only accessed from the cloud when the HP Live Photo app is used to scan a Live Photo. 
    If I print a Live Photo to give to family/friends, how will the recipient know how to view it?
    The HP Live Photo app allows you to choose between printing just the Live Photo itself, or printing the Live Photo and a set of simple instructions for your recipient on 4x6 or 5x7 photo paper.  The instructions explain how to install the HP Live Photo app and view the Live Photo.
    Can I share my Live Photos with anyone? 
    Yes.  You can share with any friends/family using a live photo nametag.  Even easier, if you log into Facebook from the Live Photo app your Facebook friends are automatically enabled to view any live photos you share with them without having to enter your Live Photo nametag. 
    What is a Live Photo Nametag? 
    A Live Photo nametag allows you to share live photos with friends and family who are not a Facebook friend.   The Live Photo app will prompt you to create your own custom nametag. This nametag allows Live Photo users who are not your Facebook friends to view  your live photos. 
    Your nametag is printed on the bottom right corner of all your live photos.  When you share your live photo with someone who is not a Facebook friend, they can simply enter your nametag in the nametag field on the View screen of the Live Photo app, and then view any of your live photos you share with them.  This is a one-time operation - once your friend or family member enters your live photo nametag they will be able to view any of your live photos.  Anyone who is a Facebook friends can view your live photos w/out having to enter your nametag.  
    How do I print a Live Photo from an iOS device?
    You can print Live Photos from the Live Photo app on your iOS device in the same way you print other photos on iOS, using the built-in iOS Airprint feature. Airprint supports a range of printers from HP and other companies.  If you need help with Airprint, follow the steps in “How do I send a print job using Apple AirPrint?” section in these instructions. 
    How do I print a Live Photo from an Android device?
    Printing from Android devices is supported via the HP ePrint app, and is currently only enabled for HP printers. (See the next section for printing to non-HP printers or printers not supported by the HP ePrint app.)  The ePrint app must be installed separately from the Live Photo app, and supports all web-connected HP printers released in the past several years and many legacy HP printers.  If the HP ePrint app is not installed on your Android device you will be prompted to install it when you select the Print option in the Live Photo app.  For more information see the HP ePrint app in the Google Play store.
    Note on HP ePrint app Activation: After the HP ePrint app completes installing you will be prompted by the HP ePrint app to Activate it.  You do not have to complete the “Activation” step in the HP ePrint app to print to your local wi-fi connected HP printers.  HP ePrint app Activation is only required if you wish to print to HP web-connected printers on your HP Connected or HP ePrintCenter account, over an internet connection.
    Once the HP ePrint app is installed, when you select Print from the Live Photo app the HP ePrint app will be automatically launched w/the live photo displayed and ready to print.  All you have to do is select an HP printer on your wi-fi network, ensure you have photo paper inserted, and hit print.
    Can I print from my Android device to non-HP printers and HP printers that the ePrint app does not support?
    Yes.  There are some third-party printing apps available for Android devices in the Google Play store (one example is Printershare).  If your HP printer is not supported by the HP ePrint app, or if your HP printer compatible is not compatible with the HP ePrint app, you may be able to use a third-party print app to print your HP live photos.
    Send the photo to yourself via the Share via email option from Live Photo.  Then open the email on your phone and tap on the photo when it displays after downloading. Select the Android Menu option and choose Share. Your print app should appear on the Share list.  Select the print app and complete your print as you normally do using that app.
    Can I print Live Photos from my computer?
    Yes.  Simply share your photo via email from the Live Photo app to your own email address and then open the email and print the live photo as you normally do from your computer. You can print live photos from your computer to any printer you have attached to it that supports photo printing.
    Can I print Live Photos on plain paper?
    Always print Live Photos on photo paper to provide the necessary color, saturation, and depth for the best Live Photo experience.  You may have success printing on plain paper, but results will be much less predictable.
    Do I need a Facebook account to use HP Live Photo?
    Viewing: No. A Facebook account is not required to view live photos using the Live Photo app. 
    Creating: No.  A Facebook account is not required to create Live Photos.  You can create and share them using your Live Photo Nametag.  However:  If you create live photos without logging into Facebook, we cannot make your live photos available to you in the Live Photo app on other devices.  Any live photos you create on a device using just a Live Photo nametag will be added to your Live Photo gallery and available on other devices if you sign into the app using Facebook. 
    Do I need an internet connection to use this app? 
    Yes, HP Live photo requires an internet connection for launch/use. 
    I played the introduction video in the app but why is there no sound – what’s wrong?
    Make sure that you have sound enabled on your iOS device...if you are set to virbrate mode you will not hear audio with the video. 
    How can I provide feedback on Live Photo features that I’d like added or changed?
    In the HP Live Photo app, select Settings and scroll down to the Send Feedback option.  We would love to hear from you!  Note that this option is for feedback and is not monitored for support questions.  For support questions see the
    Printing Live Photos, Troubleshooting, and Support sections below.
    I am having an issue with the HP Live Photo app – where can I get help?

    TROUBLESHOOTING
    Create:
    Can I change the images that the app pulled from the video for the Live Photo?
    It is not possible to directly select a specific frame of the video to print as the Live Photo.  You can try the refresh button in the upper-right corner of the “Choose Image” screen to re-scan your video.
    What can I do if the HP Live Photo app is unable to find an image in my video for the Live Photo?
    The most likely reason for not finding an appropriate image to print for the Live Photo is that the content of the video does not provide enough contrast.  For example, a video of a white dog walking on the sidewalk, or black dog walking on asphalt.  The best way to try to resolve this issue is to shoot the video with more lighting to increase the contrast.  You can also try to include a few “still shots” in the video where camera and subject movement is minimized. 
    What if I don’t want to share the entire video?
    After you select your video, you can use standard iOS video trim functions within the HP Live Photo app to choose your desired begin and end points. 
    What if my video is longer than 45 seconds?
    The HP Live Photo app will display the video trim controls automatically with a 45 second segment selected so you can choose what portion of the video to include.
    Can I use a video from another source?
    HP Live Photo currently only supports videos created on your iOS device.
    It’s taking a very long time to save my Live Photo project.  What can I do to speed it up?
    Saving the project requires uploading both the video clip and the photo, and completing several tasks in the cloud to link the Live Photo to the video. Depending on the length of your video and the speed of your internet upload connection (which can vary significantly over time), this can take several minutes. 
    If you are on Wi-Fi and the save is taking more than five minutes or not completing, try changing to 3G or 4G, which usually have faster upload speeds than home or public Wi-Fi connections.  (Data charges may apply.)  You can also try using a shorter video clip.   (If you are interested, you can use services like www.speedtest.net to test your Wi-Fi and 3G/4G upload speeds.)
    How do I view or share Live Photos I’ve already created?
    Select the Live Photos option (icon looks like a small stack of photos) in the Live Photo app to view the Live Photos you have created.  Select one of them to view the photo and choose a print or share option. 
    How do I delete a Live Photo from my list of saved Live Photos?
    iOS:  Go to the Live Photo tab and slide your finger left-to-right on the Live Photo you want to delete.  A “Delete” button will appear – select it to delete the photo.
    Android: Select the Live Photo icon (at the top of the Live Photo app, looks like a stack of photos) to view your live photos.  Long press on a live photo a context menu will appear with Delete and Share options.  Select the Delete option.
    Share
    I’m having problems printing a Live Photo that was shared to me.   
    See the Printing Live Photos section above for general information and assistance with printing HP Live Photos.
    Can I use the app to view a Live Photo on my computer screen?
    Yes.  If you share the Live Photo via email or Facebook, recipients can use the HP Live Photo app to view the Live Photo on screen and see the video.  Results can be affected by the monitor display resolution and type, as well as ambient lighting.  
    My friend doesn’t have an iOS or Android device.  Can I share my Live Photo with her?
    At this time an iOS or Android device is required to view the videos associated with your Live Photos. 
    I just need the viewing instruction sheet – how can I print that?
    Go into app Settings and scroll down and select the “Print Instructions” option.  If you prefer not to print the instructions on 4x6 or 5x7 media, remove photo media from the photo tray before you send the print. 
    View:
    I have a Live Photo that does not play when I view it through the HP Live Photo app.  What’s wrong?
    Below are some reasons why this could occur:
    The photo is not an HP Live Photo.  Look for the small blue icon of a bird in the lower-right corner of the photo to confirm it is a Live Photo.
    The person who created the Live Photo must be either one of your Facebook friends, or you must connect to them by entering their nametag (printed on the bottom-right of the live photo) in the View screen in the Live Photo app.  
    The Live Photo needs to be printed on photo paper for best results.
    Ensure sufficient light is available for viewing, and minimize any glare or shadows on the photo.
    The creator of the Live Photo may have deleted the Live Photo project from their app.  Contact them to confirm it is still available.
    An internet connection that is too slow/unstable.
    Can I view Live Photos with other augmented reality apps?
    No.  HP Live Photo requires the HP Live Photo app to view the images and display the video.

  • Lumia 820 Photo Resolution Problem

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me solve why i cannot change the photo resolution on my Lumia 820?
    When i check them on a PC they always come out at either 800x600 on 4:3 ratio or 800x450 on 16:9 ratio.
    It's driving me mad there is no option in the photo settings or anywhere else in the phone to change this.
    I read on another post that it can be related to skydrive uploading, although I have skydrive disabled and this problem still persists.
    Please Help
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    How did you download the photos to your pc? Photos uploaded to Skydrive are reduced in resolution by default unless you change the setting to Best Quality which requires wifi. To change this, goto Settings>Applications>photos+camera>Skydrive>Photo​s> Best quality
    Other option to download high res is to connect phone to pc using USB. 

  • Photo resolution with iCloud photo-library bèta.

    You guys probably know about the new iCloud photo-library beta version.
    This is what Apple says:
    " iCloud Photo Library helps you make the most of the space available on your iOS device by automatically storing the original high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and leaving behind the lightweight versions that are perfectly sized for each device."
    Does this mean that the quality of my photo's is less good then

    Yes it will when storage on the phone will become tight.

  • Acceptable and Quality Still Photo Resolution for HDV Documentary

    I've scanned through several pages of posts on photo resolution here, but I haven't actually found a simple answer to a beginner's question. Two, actually:
    1. If someone is supplying you with still photo prints for scanning and use in a documentary (shot in HDV, edited on FCP5), is there a particular size print that you should ask for? Does the broadcast venue (theatrical, TV, etc.) have any relevance?
    2. If someone is scanning photos and sending you a CD with them, what are the specs (size, resolution, etc.) you should ask for? And are there "minimum acceptable" specs and "preferred, high quality" specs?
    Thanks.

    Having worked on several long-form historical docos with hundreds of source photo scans, I'd highly recommend getting the originals in as high a resolution as you can (at least 300 DPI), and getting the entire photo scanned. You just never know when you need to apply pans or zooms or crop into a particular area to improve the edit, and there are many simple ways to prep the selected photos for import.
    The simplest is just to do the scaling & cropping in FCP. It will do a fine job of this, but if it turns out most of the photos will be static, you can waste computer resources by importing unnecessarily-large images. As mooblie pointed out, you strictly only need enough resolution to prevent scaling up past 100%, as this will create pixelated lower quality output.
    The most common way to prep scans is in Photoshop, where you can scale the image to a desired pixel size very easily. I'd still leave the image at its natural frame size (as scanned), so you have the most creative choice when you are framing it in the timeline using FCPs cropping & motion tabs tools.
    If you've got lots of photos and lots of pans & zooms, consider using one of the third-party tools that will help with this, such as Photo to Movie from LQ Graphics, Moving Picture from StageTools, or even the plugin for FCP I wrote to help with the docos I mentioned above. It's called Pan Zoom Pro and you can see about it and download a demo here: http://www.lyric.com/fcp-plugins/index.htm#pzp .

  • Photo resolution on iweb

    Does anyone know how to improve the photo resolution on iweb? Can i upload pics from iphoto to iweb with original file size?

    Does anyone know how to improve the photo resolution
    on iweb? Can i upload pics from iphoto to iweb with
    original file size?
    Yes, you can. Not sure why you would want to do this. Web images tend to have to balance image quality with download speed. But sure, you can have your original photo used in iWeb. Just drag it from iPhoto directly into iWeb. Then open up the Inspector and click on the Rulers tab. The click "Use original size". That will be your original photo.
    If you make any other changes to your photo like shrinking it down to a little square or rotating it or putting a frame around it, then iWeb will convert your photo to a PNG file and subsequently recompress the image for the PNG file. That will again lower your resolution.

  • Nokia Lumia 820 change photo resolution

    Hello,
    Can anyone tell me why can't I change the resolution in the photo camera? If I choose video I can select resolution, but on photo I cannot, there is no option. This is not ok, my phone took the last photos both in landscape and portrait at 1280x720 / 720x1280 resolution. If it has 8mpx why can't I benefit from this res?? who from Nokia had this brilliant idea of taking out the option to select the photo resolution???

    I presume you are uploading your photos to Skydrive. The phone automatically reduces the resolution before photos are uploaded. To dwnload your photos at full resolution you need to either connect to pc via usb or change the auto upload settings as follows. Goto settings>backup>photos>best quality (needs wifi)

  • Just upgraded and iPhoto said it has to upgrade library but keeps freezing. Have tried it too many times now and I need those photos ASAP  HELP!!

    Just upgraded and iPhoto said it has to upgrade library but keeps freezing. Have tried it too many times now and I need those photos ASAP  HELP!!

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards
    TD

  • Photo resolution & movies?!

    So, I'm confused. I can create a very nice page, but there are a couple things that I can't figure out:
    1. Photo resolution. My photos seem to automatically downsample (the large version) to 800x600. That's great if I want them to, but what if I don't?!
    -related: is it possible to link a file? ie "add link to download"?
    2. Movies cannot be put on a photo grid. That *****. I take pictures and movies with my digital camera, and I want to show both in a gallery.
    3. It's unclear to me how updating works. That is, if I publish to a folder, and I update a page or add a new one, do I have to do everything again? ie publish to folder and upload the entire thing? That seems like quite a waste of bandwidth!

  • Photo resolution on new computer

    I have noticed that the photo resolution on my new system is much smaller than on my old G4 iBook. The original size of the photos was in 1-2 meg size with great resolution. Now they are 40-50K. When I export them to a digital photo frame they are really poor. What have I done wrong?

    Yes
    Quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library to the desktop (after completing everything successfully you will delete this library) and connect the two computers (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library form the pictures folder form the old machine to the same place in the new machine (a single drag - do not move pieces of the library) and launch iPhoto on the new machine - you should be fine - and once you are trash the bad iPhoto library from the desktop

  • IDVD slideshow photo resolution

    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  
    From previous posts, it seems that iDVD photo resolution is always less than viewing a iPhoto slideshow while in that application.
    So here is my question:
    When I use the option of sharing the photos, iDVD creates a "slideshow" folder with the photos in .JPG,on the DVD. If I copy the folder to my desktop, open, then the resolution is great when viewing on my G5. So if the iDVD app and my verbatim media can create/support these images, why is the iDVD slideshow resolution so poopy?
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)

    An NTSC TV set has less than 640x480 pixel
    resolution
    - you computer monitor has more than 4 times this
    resolution.
    You are looking at an image with less than 640x480 pixel quality displayed on a much larger pixel count monitor.
    Sorry, but what you see is what you get.
    DVDs produced by iDVD are best viewed on a TV set. If you are viewing them on a computer - DO NOT set the playback display to 'Full Screen' - use 'Normal' size (which will display the video in a 640x480 window).

  • Bonjour Sharing & Photo Resolution

    I am trying to share my iPhoto library with other accounts on my home computer (and other users on the home network).
    Other users can access my library with no problems, but the photos' resolution is very low. Am I doing something wrong?

    Yes
    Quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library to the desktop (after completing everything successfully you will delete this library) and connect the two computers (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library form the pictures folder form the old machine to the same place in the new machine (a single drag - do not move pieces of the library) and launch iPhoto on the new machine - you should be fine - and once you are trash the bad iPhoto library from the desktop

  • Copying files folders display different sizes

    I'm pretty sure I'm not crazy, but isn't it true that when you copy files from one drive to another, the sizes as reported in the Finder may not always be equal even though the actual files may be exactly the same. Nothing fancy here, just a manual d
