I have photos around 80 megapixel each. These photos take too long to load specially on the web. If I scale them down I lose the quality of the image. Is there a way in capture 11 for Sony to make the file size smaller without losing the quality? If yes, I will appreciate the step by step direction.

Thanks for the kind support.

  Are you talking about resizing an 80mp image to a smaller pixel dimensions or are you talking about keeping the image at 80mp and reducing the file size?

  Goal is to reduce the file size without losing to Image quality. Images take too long to load on a website. I tried reducing the size but it also quality and detail in the image.

  If you reduce the size of a file you will, by definition, produce a file with less data.
  
  However that is only part of the story and it is probably important to understand from you what you expectations are before anyone can give you an answer.
  
  This would be true of any application used for processing images.
  
  If you want to process out ro something that will be acceptably small of web use you need to work out hat size of file the result needs to be. After that one can look at how to best process the output files to give the result, in a small file with very much less data, that you would like to see.
  
  Be aware that starting from a typical file that has recorded 80Mp you will be discarding a lot of data for a typical web display image size via a browser. However if your purpose is to share the file with others at full size then you may have the option to simply store a very detailed result on a file sharing application to retain full quality.
