Pixelization it is defined as significant square piksely which can be noticed in photos which are shown on the screen of the computer or are printed on a paper. Without pixelization when you look at a photo, you see continuous areas of various colours and intensities. Here why it happens.
To understand pixelization, you at first should understand, how digital photos are created. Digital chambers use the special gauge (also known as CCD) to grasp photos. This gauge is constructed of a considerable quantity of tiny easy sensitive gauges each representation piksela. The number pikselov in the gauge also is known as “mega piksel” – in other words the chamber which has 2 mega uses pikselov the gauge which is constructed of 2 million tiny gauges. When you take a photo, the shutter opens, and light amazes the gauge. Then light amazes each tiny gauge and each such captures of the gauge which shine intensity and colour. Connected all those gauges create piksely which include a photo.
When you look at a photo, if piksely are small enough your eye "blends" them together to create illusion of continuous areas of colours and intensity. When it happens a crackling potato of a sight of photos and in “high the decision”. If piksely are not small enough, your eye sees individual discrete piksely. When it happens, that the photo is mentioned as "pixelized" – podrazumevenie, that everyone piksel is too big, and the eye can see it individually contrary to mixing of all pikselov together in one continuous photo.
So, what defines piksely ’ the size? The size pikselov is certain in the size of a photo at which you look (for example measured in inches: width of X heights) and number pikselov in a photo. In other words the size pikselov is certain by that, how many pikselov is extended till what size of a photo.
Other measure, which is usually used to describe the size pikselov, is IKO – Piksely in Inch. IKO describes number pikselov in inch in a photo. IKO - number function pikselov camera’s supports of the gauge and the size of a photo. To calculate photo’s IKO simply multiply length of page in its width inches. Result - number of square inches on page. Now divide number pikselov supports of the gauge by number of square inches. Result - number pikselov in square inch. Everything, that leave to make, should find a square root of this number. IKO - easier number to use than full size piksela (which can be very small number). IKO - a combination of the decision of the chamber (how many mega pikselov it supports), and the size of a photo at which you look (or printed or on the computer screen). The following - table IKO, calculated for 5 mega chambers pikselov and some general formats of a paper of the press of a photo:
The size of page 4X6 - 456 IKO
The size of page 5X7 - 377 IKO
The size of page 8X10 - 250 IKO
The size of page 11X14 - 180 IKO
The size of page 16X20 - 125 IKO
The size of page 20X30 - 91 IKO
How small is small enough? It depends on several factors, and sometimes creating some pixelization is required as artistic effect. The size piksela which creates pixelization also, depends on distance from which you look at a photo. Your eye could be able notice piksely in a photo from nearby, but mix all piksely together, looking on the same photo from further. It is very easy for noticing, when smotrenie on very big bulletin boards of advertising – printing photos looks very good from tens feet far but if you stand close to a bulletin board, you can see, that it is constructed of many rather big pikselov. The general empirical rule though should make sure always your photos, in 150PPI or above. |
