[QUOTE="J-see, post: 428530, member: 31330"] I can crop as far as the quality of my shot at 100%. If that quality is good, I can crop until the image size is identical to the size I use to display it. For here that is 1024*600something. But those heavily cropped shots usually don't survive long in my collection since web display is all they are good for. I consider a shot only good if I don't need to go below 50% the size. But because I'm using an FX for birding or macro, even half that original size is a hard task to accomplish. Here's a section of an unprocessed shot cropped to the max. If I want more than this, I need to start blowing it up. [ATTACH=CONFIG]145542._xfImport[/ATTACH] If I have shots that are of less quality at 100%, I can't crop as much since I need to obscure that quality loss. The better the shot you take, the more it can be cropped. In this case, the bird is too small to make it a good enough shot for anything but web display. To add: I've taken plenty of good 100% shots with my D3300 too so the D7100 can easily do the same. Mostly when 100% isn't good, not the cam or lens but we are to blame. Here's the full: [ATTACH=CONFIG]145543._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
