Michele and Michael,

You posted the details. Can you now post the entire image (you would have to reduce the file size) so we can see what percentage of the entire image that the detail is?

If you want to see a detail of a painting I shot usinga 4x5 camera and then scanning it on a linocolor scanner, as well as the full painting you can go to another string at http://forum.portraitartist.com/show...0&pagenumber=1

To the best of my knowledge (very spotty when it comes to digital cameras) one would need about a 12 megapixel ccd to get this kind of accuracy. Those babies go for $5000+.
