Q:What's the pixel resolution setting of the camera? A:The pixel resolution settings on the camera are broken down into the following. I normally use "Better" this was what was used for the textures used for the images above. Good 592 x 400 Better 1792 X 1200 with medium compression Best 1792 X 1200 with low compression Q: Assuming a tripod was used? A: For the textures in the Images above... nope hand held. The camera has auto focus and auto light metering and will use the right amount of flash for the lighting situation. I had the model shuffle or twist around a pivot point at the bottom of their feet so the lighting would not change for me. Q:What was the distance frome the camera to the subject? A:I filled the entire frame (at portrait) with the persons face - bottom of chin to just over the top of the hair line. Hint: Do the profile images first - for it is wider than the others and scale the others relatively.
