RAW shot photos not meeting minimum file size requirement for contest
Hi! I’m a beginner and am in desperate need of help. I’m thinking about submitting some photos to a contest but I’m a very lost on the photo requirements and how to make sure my photos qualify. The requirements are: “Photos must be submitted as high resolution JPEG files (200+ dpi). Maximum file size 20 MB. Minimum file size 2 MB. Minimum image size 2048 pixels (tall or wide).” The part I’m lost on is the 200+dpi and if they are at least 2MB for file size. When I look, my photo says it’s 590.6KB and when I put that into a converter for MB it doesn’t even hit 1MB. And when I place my photos into an online dpi calculator they don’t even breach 100dpi. But the photos I take are shot as RAW and I download them from photoshop as the maximum JPEG quality. Am I doomed to not have any of my photos qualify?? Am I just being dumb? Any and all advice is greatly appreciated!
