Stock Help! - PhotoCamel

270weatherby · 10-28-2007

I've decided to submit with Alamy. Now I have a little problem. I've been shooting with a 20D which produces a 26 mb 8 bit TIFF and a 46 mb 16 bit TIFF. Alamy wants a JPG from at least an 8 bit 48 mb TIFF file. My question is does anyone here shoot stock with Alamy and a 20D or similar equip.? Will they take my smaller 8 or 16 bit sizes? Also is interpolation in Photoshop CS3 good enough or will I need to shell out for Genuine Fractals? Any insight will help.

I just jumped on the Alamy Forum at Alamy stock photography - Discussion Forum and used the search function with "file size" as the keywords. There were a lot of helpful hits returned. I'd suggest you look through it, find a solution that fits your workflow and give it a try.

Thanks, I didn't even notice a forum there.
