Choose Your Megapixels Wisely - Cheap Compact Digital Cameras from Canon, Olympus, Sanyo, Nikon, Samsung and Pentax
These discount digital compact cameras have just arrived in stock and you can choose from 5.0 to 8.1 Megapixels.
Generally the higher the Megapixels the more you're going to pay for your new digital camera. With this in mind it's worth having a think about the intended use of your camera before you spend your hard earned money.
If your images are for digital use only (to view on a website or your computer) then Megapixels is not really an issue. You can save a bit of money and go for a low Megapixel camera. However if you intend to manipulate and crop your images quite a bit then a camera with higher Megapixels could be beneficial. After you've cropped your image you'd still be left with a good size digital image.
If you intend to print your digital photos then 6 Megapixels or more is the way to go; that will ensure you get a nice high resolution print (similar to a print from a 35mm slide).
If large prints are your goal then you should go for the highest resolution possible, this will enable you to print high quality A3 and even poster size photos.
