minolta 7i and dpi?
I have a minolta 7i that I have enjoyed using for months now. I just recently discovered that all my shots Jpeg and Raw images are a 72dpi resolution. I can not find anywhere in the cameras controls to change to 300dpi. My old nikon 880 had everything in 300dpi no changes necessary. Can anyone explain why a better megapix camera would only have images in 72dpi and tell me if I can change it. I want the best prints possible help please!Lisa

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that the choice of dpi resolution is made when you decide to print/display the images, not in-camera when they are recorded. If you are using the 7i at the Std setting, then its recording the image as a JPEG with resolution of 1280 x 960 pixels. When you display the image on-screen or print it you choose the size by specifying the dpi (dots per inch).
