"The DiMAGE A2 from Minolta lets you create refined, high quality digital images. The camera's 2/3-type CCD with 8 MP lets you print 17" x 23? (150-dpi) prints."

"8-megapixel interlace scan CCD captures superb-quality, detail-rich images-good enough to be enlarged and printed out up to A3-size at 200 dpi."

You can print 17" X 23" images at 150 dpi! It can even print at 200 DPI for A3 size pages.

WTF? Are you trying to print? Movie posters?
Ok.. when you snap a pic... pull it into the computer and open it in PS... the dpi is 72, no matter what settings I use... Raw...TIFF... etc....

I have been on the phone with Minolta and I am waiting for the tier 2 level support to get out of a meeting to see what they suggest.

I have a nikon coolpix 4500... images "out of the camera".... 300dpi (4mp)... borrowed a canon D60 from a friend... out of the camera.... 180 dpi (6.3mp)

Size does not matter... If you know anything about print work... you need a min of 150 dpi for regular print... and 300dpi for photographic printing.
