Help creating life-size portrait in The Digital Darkroom: Process, Technique & Printing Posted March 4, 2005 I want to create a life-size cardboard cut out of a person and I'mconcerned my Canon 10d is incapable of creating an image with enoughresolution for such a big enlargement. I'd considered shooting MF and then having the neg scanned, but I'dmuch prefer to shoot it digital. Can anyone help me understand how big the digital image must be tomake a 6-foot tall image? Could I do it with my Canon 10d? Would theextra megapixels offered in the 20d make a difference? Thanks.
