Choosing a digital camera
If you need a guide as to the amount of megapixels you need on your new
digital camera, I can give you a guide....... If you don`t intend to do any
cropping of your images, a two megapixel camera can produce photo
quality prints at up to 6 x 8 inches, a 3 megapixel camera can give you up
to 10 x 8 inch prints, and a 5 megapixel can produce prints up to 12 x 10
inches, and a 6 megapixel up to 14 x 11 inches. Of course if you anticipate
ever cropping your images at all, you should allow some leaway for this.
When deciding on which camera to buy, and you are looking at it`s Zoom
features, don`t be taken in by "Digital Zoom" figures, because all that
Digital Zoom does, is it enlarges the centre portion of your picture,
degrading the quality as it enlarges, `interpolating` (filling in the missing
pixels by averaging out the adjacent ones) which is something that you can
do on your home computer afterwards.
"Optical Zoom" is the important part of the Zoom that you should
be interested in, because your optically Zoomed photos will
still contain all of your cameras original resolution. But while I`m on the
subject please be aware that unless the camera has an optical image
stabiliser, and there aren`t many that have, you may need to use a tripod
when using powerful zooms at or near their limit , especially in low light.
Good Luck!

interesting, do you know how big a picture 7.2 megapixels gives you? As I await my new sony cybershot with 7.2 megapixels in the post as I type!I currently have a sony cybershot 3.2 megapixels. I am looking forward to the upgrade, oh and this one will have a 3x optical zoom. my currant one has no optical zoom.
The Cyber-shot P150 is a stylish, 7-megapixel camera with 3X optical zoom lens. :)
