This post has been long in the making since I had to re-write it a few times and kept postponing it because of this. Anyways, on to the subject.
I've been experimenting a bit with uploading my photos to Instagram and at first, I thought I had it all figured out, but as I did some more testing I got confused. I was almost finished with writing a mini tutorial about this topic, but I did, even more, testing and finally figured out what worked for me.
The reason behind all my testing is that I have been experiencing some bad decrease of the quality of the photos I upload to Instagram. This is with my DSLR camera and not my phone camera. It has been like this for some time now, but I never bothered to look for a solution before now.
Here are some examples of the compression Instagram has done to my photos. The original photo is on the left and the one from Instagram is on the right.
It's pretty bad as you can see.
