Fist off, A correction. The images are at 72dpi, not like that's going to make a difference though.
I went to London drugs because there photo lab is
supposed to have a very good reputation. I didn't get prints, just negs back (saved me about $4), so I can't compare them.
Pardon my confusion, but if they're 75 dpi, how is that hi rez? Are they 30x45 inches at 75 dpi? If not, I'd venture to say that they're actually lo-rez. Also, looking at your example, when black is showing up as mottled yellowish-green, I'd say they're doing a pretty shitty scan job. Do the prints look that bad? |
I can understand why you are confused. On scanners Dots Per Inch, actually refers to Pixels Per Inch. PPI is the size of the pixels. In this case 1/72
nd of an inch, so yes, the images do measure 42" by 28".
On what part of the image is the black appearing to be yellowish-green?
