Or how is best to help retain quality. It depends on how you want to use the image. For example, 4896 x 3264 pixels would be a large image for use on a Web page. > 2.

Unsharp mask has ugly defaults for a lot of images, and you probably want to reduce the amount. I prefer Sharpen for a lot of cases, but it all depends on how you will use the image.
