[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Several agencies have a list of accepted and not accepted cameras. Here is Alamy's accepted list: http://www.alamy.com/contributor/help/recommended-digital-cameras.asp <http://www.alamy.com/contributor/help/recommended-digital-cameras.asp>And not allowed: http://www.alamy.com/contributor/help/unsuitable-cameras.asp Getty has a similar list, restricted to contributors. It does include as accepted the Leica M8 and M9 and X1, but not DMR. <http://www.alamy.com/contributor/help/unsuitable-cameras.asp>Alamy used to require 48MB but has reduced that to 24MB. Getty requires 47.5-52MB. I use to use Alien Skin BlowUp to enlarge files when needed.
