what size to email

[SueInBoston]

What size should I compress to send via email to allow the receiver good quality for 5x7 print? I have xt and orig size is around 4 mb.

TIA

I'd send the full size file if they are going to print it.

2 other options are.

1. upload to a site like walmart and let them have it printed from there..


2. or a site like zenfolio..you can set your folders so people either can or can not order prints from either ezprints or mpix...

keep in mind that a 5x7 usually requires some cropping to be printed

I would either go with a 6x8 which in most cases would be full frame, or do the cropping before sending so the pic is printed the way I would want it..
