Good news, the camera is not totally obsolete. But, cell/mobile phones can do everything from play music to surf the internet.

I recommend that photos are at least 300 dpi. Graphic designers use this rule of thumb when working with images. Of course, they could be a higher resolution...Hope this helped... </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/photography#post-165 Wed, 12 Nov 2008 09:55:36 +0000 Martha56 165@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>Are images supposed to be a certain dpi? What is dpi? </p>
