Magnify your pictures using a PictureBox so that you can zoom with the Mouse Wheel

by Calvin_Hsia via Calvin Hsia on 8/21/2008 6:15:00 PM

Today’s digital cameras take pictures with much higher resolution than many computer screens. My Canon PowerShot SD800 IS camera takes pictures at 3072 x 2204 resolution.
