Using PS 7 with Nikon Coolpix 5700
When doing a Photoshoot where I need to take several pictures quickly, I tend to shoot in High JPEG, max size. This gives me a large enough photo of a high enough quality to get decent prints. I then burn the originals from the CF card to CD and then copy them to my hard drive, usually to a folder called "xxxx orig" I then make whatever adjustments that I feel the photo warrents, then click "Save as" I then save the file to a different folder "xxxx modified" The JPEG dialogue box comes up, and I elect to save at the highest setting (12) The problem is that this saves the file at almost twice the size, yet when I compare the details, both photo’s are at a resolution of 300, and both are 2650 * 1920. I also can’t see any difference in the quality of the image.
Where do the extra bytes come from ?
