Hi,

I uprez my Canon G6 files to 100mb in 16bit. I'ts been done by using 
capture one. I just put in the filesize 160% and there it goes.
The files are soft but are accepted by Alamy. Essential with the G6 is 
that I only shoot at 50iso and in raw.
You can more or less do the same thing with Adobe raw.

Cheers,

Michiel Fokkema
