Question: What is the difference between 4R and 4RD print?
Answer:4R's dimension is 4" x 6", 4RD's dimension is 4" x 5.33"
4RD is short for 4R DSC (4R Digital Still Camera).
Most digital still cameras have image ratio of 4RD, except for DSLRs which have image settings at 4R's 3 : 2 Ratio.
In short, if you're using a digital still camera, choosing 4RD will ensure that there is no cropping of your picture. A normal 4R development will result in some parts of the top and bottom being cut away.
This is the same for all photo lab developments.
Question: I am running out of free space?
Answer: Registration and usage of the basic 25mb account is free. However, PictureSky do recognise some member's requirements for extra storage space, especially during ordering for online prints.
