This is a bit of a long-term future question....
My girlfriend and I bought a house this summer. It has a wonderful 17x17 bonus room above the garage that I'm planning on turning into a billiards and TV room. Next year I want to paint three of the walls Masters green, and one of the walls a light gray (same color for carpet, with white trim). On the light gray wall I want a trio of 24x36 posters - heavy on green colors, ideally with photos of some of our game's best pros.
Now... the thing is: being a room with a pool table in the middle, often people will be walking by those posters from VERY close. A 17x17 room with a bar-box in the middle doesn't leave a ton of walking room in the center. So I need very high resolution photographs. From what I'm reading... it sounds like to get near the 300 dots per inch needed for something that will look sharp on glossy from right on top of it? I'll need stuff taken on a 30 megapixel camera.
Looking online... those cameras are EXPENSIVE. Is there anyone throwing up pics on that level of quality? Or who'd sell them at a minimal cost? That seems like an extremely high resolution for a sport primarily producing photography for online consumption. But I want truly sharp and beautiful glossy posters, that look amazing from a foot away.
Does it exist?
