Randy, most digital cameras come with software that will let you shrink the photo size.
If not, then go to www.irfanview.com and download their freeware. In the image tab, select resize and choose your dimension. Be sure it is set to proportional if you have the option. Vic G

Usually most dig`cameras have settings that can change the way they take photos. HQ & SHQ High Quality and Super High Quality These represent the file size in pixels, image size, and resolution.
I'm sure if you read your manual, you'll find how to adjust these settings.
Good Luck.

In your bitmap program, do all your darkroom magic at a high resolution, in .bmp, .tif or the native format. Then resample the image to the exact size you want, at 72 dpi. Mask off the bright areas and sharpen the dark areas. Save As .jpg. Post image.
