    i was talking about the picture file itself. but thats interesting that you need a business shot in germany i never knew that…. and your right for those types of photos it doesn’t make much of a difference. I guess I’m just used to working on projects where the files have to be big and i have to get really precise control. but that is not needed in every instance.

    of the digital file or of the video file? mh i do not know how old the video really is…of course a full frame format is best for retuch but if customers usually buy a photo in 4×6cm they will not see a big difference…this is not portrait technique, it is passport/business shot technique. in germany, business photos are required to get a job, i know in other countrys you need no photos like that…for portrait full frame chips surely is the better choice.
