How do different images from the same camera vary in file size?

624 views

Wouldn’t a camera with a constant resolution capture images of the same quality and therefore file size? How is it possible that some images on my camera can be 1.5 MB, and others 2.5 MB?

Two things: amount of details and amount of green color. That’s how JPEG compression works. An image of a leafy tree could be the biggest.

BTW RAW image files could be the same size because they aren’t compressed.
