bobatkins Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Why don't you ask them? I'm sure they must have a set a guidelines for anyone who wants to submit images. Since you're going to need that anyway, you might as well ask for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis_vener_photography Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 If Corbis' guidelines are similar to Getty Images', they'll want a 8 bit per channel TIFF of approximately 50mb. (in other wordsfor a DSLR think Canon 1Ds mark 2, Canon 5D, Nikon D2X). My understanding is that guideline can be negotiated depending on type of photography & content.

craig_shearman1 Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Corbis doesn't care what kind of camera you're using. They care what kind of file you deliver. Anything from a Nikon D200 (or Canon equivalent) on up will meet their specs as-is. Cameras with few megapixels may need Genuine Fractals. Scanned film will also meet the specs.

bobatkins Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 However upsizing images from smaller sensors (as you asked about previously) probably won't win you any friends if they find out you are doing it to try to fool them! If your work is exceptional, I presume they may be prepared to make an exception! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kate_brown2 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I know that at the Perfect Picture School of Photography, www.ppsop.com, they just started an area that will allow you to submit unlimited images for a small monthly fee, and those images will be looked at by Corbis and Fogstock. The two agencies will only accept images that were taken with an 8MP or higher and each have their own requirements for submission. The site has other information as well on it, but I think it is a pretty good outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photo5 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Wojtek, I know this is a late reply, but it depends on what content-type you are submitting for. The requirements vary for editorial, commercial, RF, RM, etc. Of course, bigger is always better, and very generally speaking, the cleanest files come from Canon digital cameras. Hope this helps.
