[QUOTE="aroy, post: 477474, member: 16090"] If you have a 24MP sensor, then I would not bother much. I would use the central 2/3 of the sensor for the main subject. That leaves plenty of margin. A 7x5 at 300 DPI is 2100x1500 pixels. A 24MP is 6000x4000, a 12MP sensor will be 4000x3000 pixels. So you have plenty of margin for cropping later. What is more pertinent is to shoot in RAW. Then even if a shot is slightly dark or slightly blown, you can recover. You can also tweak the image for better presentation, a task difficult (though possible with effort) to carry out if you shoot jpeg. [/QUOTE]
