Photo size requirements (i'm confused!)


Recommended Posts

Hi all, I'm hoping to contribute to Alamy, both in the archival section and also contemporary images, however I'm confused by the size requirements.

I'm taking pictures with a Canon EOS Rebel t5,  and in the file information it lists my images usually at around 3400 x 5100 pixels, but only a file size of around 5MB, which would fall waay short of the stipulation of 17MB + .

It occurs to me that the file information shown on the camera is perhaps the compressed size? 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That.

You're already ahead of most of the beginners who ask that question here. 3400x5100 is way over the minimum of 6MP..
