I read somewhere on the net that the way to see if your photos are really sharp you must view them at "pixel level". My question is how do you view at pixel level? I know bitmap photos are easly viewed as pixels by how are jpg's and tiff's viewed at pixel level?

View at "100%" magnification in your software, going higher than 200% will just get you nitpicking unless you are cloning out items. I often work at 400% when cloning out power lines and things like that, but never judge the quality of my image at those levels.

Many images can be verified as composite or not if viewed at pixel level. A fair amount of AR images are composites, and usually when created the creator doesn't think about it.

But what is pixel level?

Keep zooming, it will become obvious when you get there.

Typically in magazines one sees two camera images compared at 100% crop. OK, I would like to compare settings in my own camera... how EXACTLY stepwise does one generate 100% crop. References I have found dance around the details rather than saying ,,, dunt-no-how.... HOW please.

You display the image at 100% and then crop down to the thing you want to have a 100% crop of.

On Photoshop I magnify the picture to the point the edges are no longer sharp and look like small squares of varying shades. The squares are the pixels. I am now viewing at pixel level.

Guys,have another cup of coffee and leave out the preservative ethanol... or say : Don't know.

Croce... your saying just hit delete? and Picdude you are saying look at the Pixels and know how far to go to pixelation! That is not what they do in camera evaluations.

I admit I do not know how, but I do know what it is not.

Wrong Pull! If you do not know what it is, you DO NOT know what it is not. Here it is step by step so even you can understand it. 1. Open any image 2. Go to view > Actual Pixels or 100% 3. Get the crop tool 4. Draw a marquee around whatever you want to make into a 100% crop 5. Select "Crop" and execute the command Now don't forget to close your original image without saving. There now, isn't that exactly what you "knew" it wasn't? :mrgreen:
