A good image size is minumim 1500 pixels height or width. Many digital cameras produce images in different sizes and which often have an aspect ratio of 4:3. Almost all All modern cameras produce images larger than 1500 pixels in width or height. If scaling an wider than tall resizing a larger image (i.e. landscape format) and which has an 4:3 aspect ratio from some larger size down to 1500 pixels width, it becomes 1125 pixels in height. Or in case of a taller than wide image (i.e. portrait format) the resulting image size will be 1125 width and 1500 pixels height. However, different cameras product different aspect ratios and image sizes and that are usually much larger images than 1500x1125 pixels.
