Basotxerri, the left side of the photo over to the bottom middle and top left third is rather dark from a shadow. Is it possible to light it so it's more similar to the right side? I'll put a note on the image to mark most of the area. PumpkinSky 16:20, 29 August 2017 (UTC)

- @Shansov.net: It is impossible for a photo to be totally free of camera shake. What if they invented a gigapixel camera tomorrow? Even 1/100s would be insufficient for a handheld wide-angle photo to be completely sharp at the pixel level. There is no visible blur at 6 MP, so as long as we are still accepting perfectly sharp 6 MP images at QI, there is no reason to punish people for using higher-resolution cameras. -- King of Hearts 22:48, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
- Well, Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. But I don't see much point in buying a 1000 Mp camera unless it provides a way to utilize it's full resolution. Image guidelines mentions camera shake among "common problems" and doesn't says anything about 6 Mp. If some user uploads an image of certain high resolution, I expect it to have appropriate amount of detail for that given resolution and I evaluate it at 100% scale.
As for "It is impossible for a photo to be totally free of camera shake" - I can't agree with this. Pictures taken with appropriate shutter speed usually don't have any noticeable camera shake at full resolution, and I can see sharp high resolution pictures from same author. Maybe we just have different opinions on that aspect. --- [Tycho] talk 03:57, 28 August 2017 (UTC)- The problem is that if we evaluate all images at pixel level, this provides a perverse incentive to downsample images. Would you have voted to support this image if he had downsampled it to a 6 MP version with no visible camera shake? -- King of Hearts 04:03, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
- I'm afraid what the answer would be... Poco a poco 04:11, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
- If you mean exactly this version, then I would be in doubt and rather skip voting, as I often do when not sure. If it would have some additional processing, making it perfect - then yes, I would support it. Don't need to be afraid, there are others who can vote instead of me :) --Shansov.net 04:21, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

- Comment On the one hand, the guidelines say that an image should not be downsampled in order to appear of better quality. So if such a measure is taken, the image can be declined outright. Similarly, they say that: "The purpose of quality image status is to recognize that at the moment of creation, a Commons user skillfully achieved a desirable level of quality, a recognition that is not erased by later advances". I take this to mean that an image taken in 2001 might be considered only of medium quality today, but considering the level of advancing technology, it would still be eligible for QI since it was of good quality at the time it was taken. Here's the point: buying new camera equipment and shooting images today is moving the goalpost forward. A 20 Mpx image taken in 2017 cannot be judged by mid-2000 standards when much lower resolutions were the norm. The norm moves. This means each image must be judged individually, but it also means that the "this is a high resolution image, so flaws should be overlooked" argument is weakening.--Peulle 07:23, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
- Comment At 1/30 sec, a tripod would usually be necessary. On a windy day, then it could still be too slow. Charlesjsharp 09:30, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
- Comment On the one hand, the guidelines say that an image should not be downsampled in order to appear of better quality. So if such a measure is taken, the image can be declined outright. Similarly, they say that: "The purpose of quality image status is to recognize that at the moment of creation, a Commons user skillfully achieved a desirable level of quality, a recognition that is not erased by later advances". I take this to mean that an image taken in 2001 might be considered only of medium quality today, but considering the level of advancing technology, it would still be eligible for QI since it was of good quality at the time it was taken. Here's the point: buying new camera equipment and shooting images today is moving the goalpost forward. A 20 Mpx image taken in 2017 cannot be judged by mid-2000 standards when much lower resolutions were the norm. The norm moves. This means each image must be judged individually, but it also means that the "this is a high resolution image, so flaws should be overlooked" argument is weakening.--Peulle 07:23, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
