Java Image Width

[rickendall]

What units does the getWidth() method of the BufferedImage class
return the width of an image in, I have a 2048x1536 pixel image loaded
but it returns the width as 4194304.

Sounds like your image is either corrupt
or at least suspect. Trty another image.

This seems to be the case, for some reason every image that has been
taken with a Minolta DImage Xt digital camera has the width and height
stored incorrectly.

Has anybody else experienced similar difficulties?

Bad, bad camera.

You might try the images in any old paint
program. If they can load the images OK,
save them to new names, that will probably
fix the problem.

There are probably 'bulk image processing'
apps out there that could do the entire lot in
a single pass.

Has anybody else experienced similar difficulties?

Yes. It was only an occasional image, and it
was long ago. I fixed them with the first
suggestion above.

Note: 2048 left shift 11 bits gives 4194304, so I think the width
is actually stored in this shifted way. I have a hunch that if you
look at the height and do an "and" with 0x7ff
that your result will be 1536.

int w = getWidth() >> 11;
int h = getHeight() & 0x7ff;
