[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 328412, member: 12496"] If your camera makes a 12 or 24 megapixel image, then it is a few thousand pixels wide, and you (or an automated something) has to resample it much smaller to show it on a video screen. Because screens are not that big. What is shown is several pixels resampled into one pixel. NOT Actual digital image view. NOT the actual original image pixels. A 100% crop is a relatively small crop, specifically that is small enough that a video screen can show it at 100% size (called Actual size). Specifically it is NOT resampled at all in any way. It shows one image pixel directly on one video pixel. It shows actual image pixels. It is called 100% because it is the 100% video view. The third image here is a 100% crop: [IMG]http://www.scantips.com/g2/crop.jpg[/IMG] Click it to enlarge it. Adobe says 100% actual size in bottom left corner of third one. This third image is about 700x700 pixels of the original D800 36 megapixels. [/QUOTE]
