I like taking photos and would like to make some large scale print outs of them and get them framed to hang up in my apartment.
My question is, how does one accomplish this? I'm looking to print something the size of maybe a movie poster, but I know from my limited graphic design experience that when printing pictures they need to be uncompressed with a high dpi (like 300). But, the camera I have now only takes jpegs, which are compressed and I'm sure would look crappy when printed.
Should I just get a very high megapixel camera? Do they make cameras that save in TIFF or some other UNcompressed picture format?
