To which I reply, once again, balderdash. But it's true. If you're
going to print a book the publisher will demand this 300 ppi "photo
quality". I'm not printing books and I don't care. I'm also not doing
architectural photography where I'd like all the details to be sharp as
a tack. In my photo world a 3MP image can make a beautiful 24x36
portrait... designed, of course, to be viewed from several feet away and
not the 25cm/10" reading distance for a typical book or magazine.
