I'm sort of confused... I would assume that taking pictures with a camera, the pics would be the right proportions that they are suppose to be when i want to print them out.... allow me to try to explain...
I've taken some pictures... with my d40... I shoot in raw... I import the pictures into lightroom... then i do a little bit of cropping (it all stays proportionate...) then I take the picture to a printing kiosk... and I want an 8x10... however.. the picture is to big.. so instead of the kiosk just sizing the image properly.. it cuts a bunch off.... now the picture looks like crap... so I try something else... I go home... I resize the image to an 8x10... the orignal is HUGE, 33x22 or something crazy like that.. i'm not sure... i do the resize.. which i assume should look good.. but now people are stretched... or flatteneed... how can i just take a picture and print it out so its a proper image size (8x10... 5x8 whatever) and the people look the same..
I'm obvously doing somehting wrong???
