Felipe Milori Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Why I am not able to maintain high resolution when resizing an big image? I have a pretty big image that I took straight from my camera (4912 x 2760 px) and I need to change size to 700 x 300 px to upload it as a website banner. The problem I am having is that when I try to do that, my image gets completely pixelated, like a very low resolution image. I was able to do the exact same task flawlesly with Photoshop and even Pixlr. Why Affinity Photo can't do that basic task? Am I doing something wrong?

carl123 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Can you zip that image and upload it to the forum (the original image not one you have resized) Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 What resizing algorithm have you used? ‘Nearest Neighbour’ will always yield blocky results. By the way, you can’t resize from 4912 px × 2760 px to 700 px × 300 px without significantly distorting the image.

Felipe Milori Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 Sorry guys, it seems that when I switch to Resample "Lanczos 3 Non-Separable" the result I got is much better. And also, with the same zoom (200%) Photoshop and Affinity Photo look pretty similar. Thanks for all the replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Rostron Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 You should assess your final image at 100%. This is how your target viewers will see it.
