46" print from HTC One phone camera proves it's not all about megapixels

GPS · Oct 5, 2013

I consider myself an expert on digital images from the perspective of using them for print. At Spitting Images, we have a wide range of customers, from professional photographers to enthusiasts, to smartphone shutterbugs.

Our job is to take the photos our customers love and turn them into pieces of art.

Our specialty is in printing photos to canvas, and most of the time, this means we’re going large format.

Not every camera is built with printing large format in mind. The resolution and quality of the sensor are not always ideal for such large prints. So quite often we need to apply some degree of creative enhancements to the images so they appear sharp and worthy of adorning the wall of your home.

Although the captured images of the HTC One camera are quite clear, sharp and full of good colour, it’s equipped with a relatively small sensor. 4MP images might be quite small to enlarge very much when printed. But megapixels are just part of the print-quality equation. The quality of the lens, the sharpness of the image and the amount of light captured are arguably more important than the sheer number of pixels captured.
