[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 318128, member: 12496"] The client just wants lots of pixels. His number 400 dpi has no meaning as stated, unless he also states a reproduction size, like 8x10 inches. But, clients have to humored. :) The camera cannot change dpi (it was just an arbitrary number the camera assigns), but dpi is just a lone number in the file. The number has no effect on the image pixels (unless combined with a resampling operation) I don't use Gimp myself, but this tells you how to change the number (change both X and Y resolution).
