Lesson 95 of 100
Creating a simple photo book
No prior knowledge needed. Keep your camera or phone beside you and try each control or idea as it appears. The aim is understanding, not memorising terminology.
Screen and print are different
A screen emits light; paper reflects it. A print can therefore look darker or less vivid than an over-bright monitor preview.
Resolution and size
The number of pixels available and the intended print dimensions determine how much detail can be reproduced. Do not judge print quality only from file size in megabytes.
Make a small test first
Before paying for a large print or book, test a representative image or small section. Check brightness, colour, cropping and text placement under normal viewing light.
