a 2 mb camera will give you print quality up to

around 5x7 or so. if all you are wanting are jpegs

for the web and an occasional print, then it is

plenty. if you are serious about getting into making

prints for friends and family then i would try to

invest more a little money up front for a four-six mb

camera if you can swing it.

of course the more money you spend on a camera

the less you will have for the '02!

cheers,

mike

as it takes a quadrupling of pixels to have double the resolution. As Ken Rockwell says in my link, the quality of color and other factors are more important. I used a 2.7mp Nikon D1H for this shot of my car and it cost 3400 bucks and can do 16x20s that you couldn't tell from film. You don't have to spend that much at all. Check the reviews of cameras you're interested in at www.dpreview.com. Do some research on the web.

I checked on PCmagazine.com at their camera reviews. They update them often. I went for the best picture quality in the sub-$400 price range and settled on a Pentax D550. Pentax doesn't make it anymore, but I really like it.

digital camera prices are dropping rapidly. I have a $50 2 meg -no optical zoom-saw a toshiba 3.2 meg w/2.7 optical zoom at Meijers grocery -midwest- for $150. If you don't check price /spec w/in a week of purchase you may be sorry. Gateway got good reviews recently for high end camera. If a vendor trys to sell you film be very suspicious. j.england INDY BMWCCA #892
