Good chart. But what if you upsize the file with something like Genuine Fractals?
I use Alien Skin Blow up!, but the point is, you should always resize your image to, say, 360ppi for Epson printers before printing. If you are printing and the dialog says something like 296ppi or 167ppi, you're doing it wrong, the print driver resizing algorithms are sh-t, if they even do anything at all.
This is what complicates matters, the real question is: how acceptable will my print look after I ran it through a resizing plugin? The reality is, a whole f---ing lot. As a poster said early on, if your original shot is TACK SHARP up close (good focus, fast shutter, et al.), it can stand an impressive amount of resizing, depending on subject of course.
If you own or intend to buy a 1Dx but are having doubts about how big it can print compared to say a 5D3, well 4MP difference is peanuts, worst case it will amount to 4 inches print size difference on a huge print, like if the prints 24" minimum. even then you'll be looking for it.
