Alamy-How to get upto 48MB?

[Happy Snapper]

How do I get my photos up to the 48MB size?

Shoot in RAW, convert to TIFF.

If you have Photoshop then increase the size using
Image - Image Size
I think the longest size should be about 5100 pixels

Its a bit confusing all this uped the DPI to 300 still too small what size would I have to resize it to?

Forget the DPI it's the image size you want to change.

once your image is in photoshop, really needs to be a 16bit tiff, you need to interpolate. so go to imagesize, then change it accordingly.. it'll tell you the size in the pop-up window thing.
Remember that you'll need to interpolate to around 100mb so that when you convert back down to an 8bit tiff it'll be half the size.

Thanks ok done that worked fine but when I saved it as a jpeg is saying its 13.5mb? is that right.

Thanks everyone for the input

The FILE size and the IMAGE size are NOT the same thing! If you open the image in PS and go to 'image size' it will tell you the size of the IMAGE - that needs to be at least 48Meg. If you shoot RAW you don't need to make tiff files - that just makes a very large FILE - convert the RAW to Jpeg and upsize if required to at least 5050 px on the longest side - that should get you to 48meg IMAGE size (but depends on the image size produced by your camera).
