very helpful Im new to photoshop , as a photographer , Im still confused with how image size works when submitting images into competitions , the requirements for one comp is 4000 on the longside and under 8mgs , have clicked on constraint as well
My camera produces 54 meg - 9000 pixel x 6000 pixel images. Without changing the resolution from 300dpi, If I crop out the central part of my image in photoshop to a size of 6000 pixels x 4000 pixels will the quality and detail of each image be the same? when printed? Obviously one image will be larger in size than the other. I am trying to judge if I create original images with high 54meg Raw files, by cropping into the centre of the image can I use this technique instead of buying a longer lens for my camera (ignoring effect of dof) This to me is confusing, please explain. Many thanks
Very clear and educational. I've been struggling with converting all supplied images to 300dpi for publication print. This video covered all the unknowns. I now know I hv to deselect Resample tickbox in Photoshop then import them in the InDesign layout 🤟
this is a fantastic video, finally someone explained resizing to 300 dpi and resizing in general in the greatest detail . Thank you so much you have made my day a good day.
I would like more information on down sampling. I have an image I was working on that I want to use as just a element in a separate image but when I down sample and copy the file over the images very blocky. The image is down scale to maybe 10% of the original.
Great video! I wanted to inform you that your time stamps don't line up with the video. (Ex: Downsampling and Upsampling time stamps). Thanks for the helpful info in the video! Take care!
Extremely helpful, everything mentioned was completely new to me so was definitely worth the watch. Love seeing your channel name in my TH-cam notifications, such great ideas and tutorials. Thank you so much.
Great videos - I want to make sure I scale my image down properly, I watched a few times and am still not sure that won't mess it up. I need to reduce the size BUT increase the dpi This image is for large outdoor printed banner 6ft x25ft. The multi-layer design is currently (full scale 72" x 300" @ 80dpi ) I need to reduce the scale to 10% but increase the dpi to 720 for the printer. Which do I change first the height/width or the dpi ? Resample or not to resample? Can I wait to flatten till after I have reduced it , I want to retain layer editing capabilities.? Downsize image first - then fit the canvas to the size? Any suggestions or precautions would be wonderful and appreciated. Thanx
I'm not sure I understand. Changing the resolution, say from 72ppi to 300ppi as you did, is just a different approach to changing the pixel dimensions is it not? You can accomplish the same thing by just setting the pixel dimensions yourself can you not? If you need a 4x6 print at 300dpi then you need an image that's 1200x1800 pixels regardless of anything else. If you don't know what the pixel dimensions should be but you do know the print size you need then you can use this approach to have PS do the math for you but otherwise it's exactly the same. Right?
Thanks for video! Do You have video were show how separate one photo and make bigger size image from group photos were is small photos, Group photos taken on graduation school, photos black and white. Thanks, Sergey
I have 300 dpi (small picture) and want to make it bigger, but there is a limit (300%) … so , resampled unchecked, change 300 to 72 dpi … picture is larger , and then checked resample and change 72 to 300 dpi … is that ok?
Thank you for the useful video! Im curious: I am writing a book were I will include illustrations I have painted myself. My firth though were to use a high resolution printer to ensure 300 DPI, but now that I know you can change the image size in photoshoop I am wondering if this will work or not: 1. Take photos in good light with my iphone 13 - resolution 3024 x4032, PPI 72 2. Use photoshoop to change image size to PPI 300 3. Use this files in my book, which I will make in InDesign I am a total newbie to both photoshoop & InDesign to this might not be an option - Do you think it would work or am I missing something?
While changing an images size it changes both the height and width, how do I stop this? I need a photo to be 854 px by 480 pixels at 72 dpi in photoshop and when I change the width and then height both of them change automatically. How do I fix this? I have used an AI website to get the correct size but I am having trouble figuring this out in photoshop.
Sounds like you may need to mix in some cropping and even slight dimensional/ distortion adjustment to get those perfect does .. takes some playing around to get it exact.
Im workin out on some NFT art that is 96 ppi 1150/1700 would u think that is good enough yo display on a screen....thinking of making it larger but dont want to waste my time
This video was made in 2021. In today's world of image graphics (2024) there is another option for "UPSAMPLING" and it is called Artificial Intelligence or AI. Even small images (eg: 200 x 200 pixels) can be greatly enlarged with Photoshop's latest AI tools with amazingly good results that are vastly superior to the traditional UPSAMPLING you showed in this video. The "scary" thing is that AI technology keeps getting better and better.
I found this video very confusing. If you resize an image upwards without resampling it, the ppi (dpi) figure will automatically go down. And the converse is true. You are just spreading the same number of pixels over a larger or smaller document. If you want to specify 300 ppi with an altered document size, you will have to resample the file. With many printers, you don't have to resize or resample the file before sending it - you specify the print size in the printer software, and the printer resamples the file itself to the preferred resolution. People go on about needing 300 dpi native resolution in relation to the final print size - in fact you can start off quite happily with, say, 240 ppi and end up with a very nice print that withstands close examination. For larger prints at large viewing distances you can go even further. People get very confused by that 72 ppi figure resolution that keeps popping up in camera metadata - it means nothing. It could just as easily say 300 ppi. What matters is the number of pixels, and the relation between the number of pixels along one edge and the corresponding dimension of any print you want to produce. An image the size of a postage stamp can be 300 ppi - but it won't look much good when you try to print it A4 size. A 6-megapixel photo might be 3000 x 2000 pixels straight out of the camera. At 300 ppi, that will produce a 10 x 6.666 inch print. If you want the print bigger, you will either have to accept a lower ppi figure (although the printer will upsample the image as necessary) or you will have to upsample the image yourself.

I did that about a week ago or so, they’re super helpful! 😄
I am glad you have recovered from your hand injury!
Extremely important information ℹ️ in the design world often overlooked! Nice refresher for me. It’s good to relearn the basics.
I love your reference to a "posh camera"
Me too. I'm gonna start using this term lol

oh goodness so helpful - just what Ive searched for but people only tell you a little of this - thanks
Thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for
What interpolation method is used when using CTRL T and dragging the scale of an Image on a layer?
this is a fantastic video, finally someone explained resizing to 300 dpi and resizing in general in the greatest detail . Thank you so much you have made my day a good day.

Chris, I really appreciate your tutorials, and this one is particularly useful. Thank you for your tutorials and your products!
SO helpful thank you!
wow thank you so much!!
I'm discovering this two years too late! Thanks for solving one of my biggest PS problems - resizing vs. resampling.
great video! Learned a lot :)
Thanks for video! Do You have video were show how separate one photo and make bigger size image from group photos were is small photos, Group photos taken on graduation school, photos black and white. Thanks, Sergey
Great video with slid explanation that helps clear us so many misconceptions I had - thx again!
I have 300 dpi (small picture) and want to make it bigger, but there is a limit (300%) … so , resampled unchecked, change 300 to 72 dpi … picture is larger , and then checked resample and change 72 to 300 dpi … is that ok?
my question exactly
Felling better. That’s great.
Thank you! once again this tutorial is great.
good tutorial, thank u
usefull, thank you for sharing this
I'm trying to create a Facebook AD in 1200x628. When I put my photos into this format they're reasonably pixelated. Could anyone help me with this?
Bro you saved my life
Thank you so much for this.
Great video, hope the arm is healing well

Was your question ever answered? I would like to know the same thing!
The Grand Theft Auto effect caught me off hard. It really gave me a good laugh. Thak you.
Good work mate, easy to mess up..
That’s what I misunderstood. Thanks
greaat video
I need to make a picture smaller so I can use stitch fiddle
Very useful video! But I have 1 question. Where did you get the color wheel in the top right corner on 1:30?😅
I think that's a third party plug in.
7:06 he got me!

I wasn't aware that just scaling an image (not smart object) while working in photoshop brings down the resolution!
Im workin out on some NFT art that is 96 ppi 1150/1700 would u think that is good enough yo display on a screen....thinking of making it larger but dont want to waste my time
You want to match the resolution of the screen resolution that you’ll be displaying it on
Been looking for that nearest neighbor tip forever spent way too long trying to get rid of the halos
very useful

Photoshop is one of the last places outside America that still uses Freedom units as a measurement.
