Full frame

[Liedia Van De Mortel]

Hi Andrei and Alex,

A few weeks ago I bought an other camera, a Canon 5DS. I love it, but because it is a full frame camera the files are hugh! I love it when doing post production because I can zoom in a lot and still being sharp, but for storage it is not ideal. What size do you work with and what size to storage.

Hi, the size is high because it’s a monstrous 50 mage pixel camera, you may want to use its mRAW option which is same quality but smaller in size and less crop flexibility though

Agree with Joseph – we always store original images in RAW. Best quality and smallest size.
If we need to store processed PSD (to preserve layers, etc) – we zip them after saving, it reduces a size of a PSD file by a lot.
