Jaggies on 5Ds

Hi

I got a 5Ds couple of weeks ago and I'm noticing on a fair few images I am seeing jaggies when zoomed in at 200%. I'm looking at other pics from other ( Fuji ) cameras and this is very noticeable on the Canon. Is it a normal thing? To do with the increased resolution of the sensor?? It's particularly noticeable on highlight tor high contrast lines.

Thank you

Don't zoom in to 200% that called pixel peeping and it serves no real world purpose. It's normal for images to pixelated at 200%.

200% means you creating data where there isn't any. You are taking a single pixel and watching it become a 2x2 block creating the jaggies.

Thank you. So this or normal. Considering it that makes senses of course. I hadn’t paid much attention to this on other pictures but TBH I only ever have zoomed in to that extent to do some retouching before and this time I was curious because this is the highest resolution on camera I have ever used and I read this yesterday

I guess I got carried away

But, I’m curious as to why this advice :

They are talking about viewing a .pdf file at 200% in preparation for making a book. Not editing a .jpg file.

Jesh how big do they think you are going to print your images? Most monitors these days seem to run at between about 80 and 110 Pixels per Inch, although a 27" 4k will be about 160 PPI. I'm going to guess that Blurb is printing at around 300 PPI. So to preview an image at about the size it will print at you need to be looking at it at something like 30% not 200%.Even my 5K monitor is still only 73% of a prints resolution.

Because a monitor has a fixed output resolution, that is usually around a third of that of print, you can never get a particularly accurate representation of what a printed image will look like when previewed on screen. When viewed on a 100 PPI screen at 100% a 5000 pixel wide image will be being viewed at 50 inches wide. So at 200% that's 100"! The same image will print 16.67" wide at 300 PPI.
