[QUOTE="desmobob, post: 691015, member: 45742"] I just received an e-mail from a friend who is not a photography enthusiast. The message had an attached JPEG from her phone camera and the file was 105 KB. The image is sharp and maintains its quality when viewed in full-screen mode on my 13" MacBook Pro. I sent a response to the message and attached an image from my D200 that I quickly converted in [I]Nikon View NX-i[/I] from an NEF file with no cropping; just some sharpening. It was a JPEG measuring 101 KB with dimensions of 1205 x 807 pixels. The "Quality" setting slider was just left of center at "Good Compression Ratio." It doesn't look nearly as sharp as her phone photo and when viewed in full screen, shows pixellation. Even though each of our files are almost exactly the same size, her is far nicer than mine. I've always been frustrated trying to get nice images to maintain quality when converting or re-sizing to small file sizes for e-mailing. Can someone school me on the process or point me to a good on-line tutorial? I'd really appreciate it! Thanks for any help or suggestions, Bob [/QUOTE]
