Depending upon how old the camera is will directly determine how much you can blow up the photograph.

Newer digital cameras can go as high as 12 Meg for a single photograph. Needless to say, this can take a huge amount of space within the camera and on your computer. I have two digital cameras. The older one (about 4 years old) takes 2 Meg shots while the newer, compact one I have goes up to 4 Meg.

You should also check the setting on your camera as well, as most cameras have different resolutions. At low res, my 4 Meg camera can store almost 500 pictures, but at high res, only about 150 shots. Obviously, the higher res the picture is teken, the more it can be enlarged.

You should be able to find a user manual for your camera on line that will tell you how to change this setting.

Hope this helps.
