Default DPI Question?! - Confused!

Hey guys,

Just been messing with a photo, checking out the dpi of it.

Now, the confusing thing is...

I edited the dpi from 72 to 200 without changing any other settings,

This gave me a file that is 13mb and 7911x5933

and the original which is 3.14mb and 2848x2136

So, now my main question is, which is the better picture? looking at them on screen i cant tell any difference, so what is the difference, except for the dimensions and dpi?

Which would be the best image to get printed on canvas/poster 40x30 inches.

And what is the approximate maximum size print for each?

Also, (sorry for all the questions...) but would a 2848x2136 size image @ 200dpi be better than the other two?

ike,
