I've got a 30mp digital camera
 

Yea, I shoot slide film on my Nikon 35mm and then scan them into my PC
with my Canoscan. Surpasses the results of any DC on the market.

You know, you could top that just by carrying an easel and painting
supplies wherever you go..

Only 30? You should get the Hasselblad H3DII with the 39Mp back.

Curious how a message written in 1999 is suddenly appearing
in 2007.

I blame Google Groups.

Could do that but it will cost a lot more than the $150.00 the scanner
cost me.

Well, while my prints are up on art gallery walls your's will only be
good enough to display in magazines at 300DPI.

Did you know that there shouldn't be an apostrophe before
the final "s" in a possessive pronoun?

What amazing resolution from your scanner!?

Yes, but knowing you are an anal retentive net-cop I did it just to
annoy you.

A 35mm slide is 36 mm x 24 mm.

Convert to inches 36/25.4 = 1.417322835 Use 1.4 inches for long side
Convert to inches 24/25.4 = 0.945 inches (rounded) for short side.

Scan at 4800 dpi you get

0.945 * 4800 = 4536 pixels
1.4 * 4800 = 6720 pixels.

Megapixels is 4536 * 6720 = 30481920 pixels or 30.48 Megapixels.
