The camera scans Photographs and encodes the image into Pixels. Pixel's transforms a visual image into a pattern of electronic signals. The visual quality of a digital photograph is influenced by the number of pixel and their physical size.
The first thing, The cameras companies always discussed
when talking about a camera or camera features is to bring up how many
megapixels the sensor is.
In order to take a picture, the camera needs to absorb the
light through the lens on the sensor. Typically the more light that you have,
the better the resulting image you get.
Let us take an example.
Take two different cameras with the same sensor size but with different megapixel ratings, one 4MP the other 8MP. In bright light, the 8MP camera is generally going to have more detailed pictures. But what if you are taking a picture indoors at night or outside at night with dim lighting. Suddenly, the image that the 4MP camera takes might end up being clearer because it does not have the noise levels that the 8MP sensor has.
So What Have We Learned ?
First off, you don’t need a huge number
of megapixels to get some great photographs. even a modest 6 megapixel camera will result
in some very good pictures. So don’t buy into the hype about having a huge
number of megapixels in your camera. What you want to do though is figure out
how you will be using your camera. If it is going to be a small camera and you
want to be able to zoom into an image without having a zoom lens, then more
megapixels may be beneficial. Just be sure that the camera will work for the
lighting and style of pictures you take. After all, if you are shooting indoors
and in low light, lower might be better.
Megapixels is just
one factor in a camera too. There is the quality of the lens, the technology
behind the sensor, the ability to focus quickly, use a flash, etc. All of these
play into how the camera works so always compare more than just megapixels.
Don’t buy into the hype that more is always better.
