Community poll forum: How many megapixels does your digital camera have?

Picture quality is pretty good. Disadvantages: is a bit slow in taking the picture (sometimes you miss the right moment) and has a very disappointing battery capacity. If you go on a longer holiday and there is no electricity there, you would need at least four fully charged batteries. They are very expensive. Don't use the screen on the back. That drains the battery very quickly. You would think that there would be a solution to that problem by now.
But the pictures are okay.

I chose this 4 mega pixel camera as I don't usually print out my photos so 4 mega pixels was plenty. Also it's weather proof so I can take photos in the rain, and has super macro as I like to take close ups. It's very compact and also takes short video sequences with sound, you can also put sound on still shots. If you like taking panoramic photos, it also has a feature to make that really easy.

My only complaint with it is that when I go into the menu to set super macro, it only stays on as long as the camera is on. When you turn it off it goes back to default, so you have to set it everytime.

Overall, a very good camera, and reasonably priced at 170. It does only come with a 32MB card though (about 30 pics at normal quality), so you need to buy extra straight off.

This is my second DSC.
First one was impressive Nikon 4500...still in family.

KMD A200:
PROS:
1. Cost - Lot cheaper than Nikon 8700. So much that at same cost, I got 1GB CF card as well.
2. Manual zoom is fun to use and yes this save lot of battery juice.
3. Good egonomics.

CONS:
1. Cant compete with Macro capability of Nikon 4500.
2. Colors are not so vivid as in Nikon 4500.
3. Poor EVF....this makes the manual Focus totally useless.

Love this camera!

4 megapixels - Olympus C755 (Same as C750). The camera is great. The delays between pictures IS annoying especially with grandchildren, but this is the only complaint. Now I have to take some time to learn how to use all of the features.

I am not an expert on digital cameras
I guess I am still waiting for some issues getting clarified. I believe they are still overpriced

If you know of a good digital camera with decent price please postthe info

Hi I`ve had my Pansonic for about 18months. The best thing I did is get Panasonic to send me a PDF so I could download it onto 8 1/2 X 11 paper.
I found that it took me awhile to get used to it. My previous camera was and Olytmpus C2100 Ultra Zoom. It was rated 1.9 MP but seemed to function like a 3.5 MP Special features with teh Panasonic is its aboility to selectively set your pictures and results. The biggest question that I have is just how many MP does the old film 35 mm cameras have on say an SAE of 200. ~Yellowhand~

I purchased the Canon EOS 20D and love it. I upgraded from a 2.1 megapixels to 8.2 megapixels. I have noticed a hugh difference. By the time a person spends the money on those replaceable batteries, they could go out and purchase a decent digital camera. Point & Shoot cameras (digital included) don't have the capacity to do more than just point & shoot. If those are precious memories you want to keep, go out research and buy a camera that offers the features you are looking for.

allows for quick shots, great night photos

5 mega pixel here and pictures look great!

CANON S2 IS

My digital camera is an Olympus E5050 of 5 megapixels - and I swear by it.
I also have 2 Pentax Spotmatic SLRs - and I swear by them, too !
I find difficulty in choosing which camera is the best - they both have good/bad points. I suppose the digital has the edge, when it comes to connecting it to my computer and printing off the pictures, as soon as I get home - whereas the SLRs have to wait to fill up the film ( otherwise its wasteful ) and take it down to the chemist - and then wait for the prints ( and the cost ! )
Even so, they both take superb pictures - so its back to square 1 !

3 megapixels Kodak 6330

too clunky, miss shots and if flash is on ,(even on automatic and not needed) it has to charge before it will even think about taking the picci.

I have a Kodak DX6490. Best camera I have ever owned, and I have had many. The Schneider-Kreuznach lens us superb. 10X optical and 3X digital works very well. About the only things I don't like are the rotary mode selector which is not easy to operate, and the wide angle lens I bought that blocks the built in flash requiring a separate flash unit. No problem with the Li-ion battery that lasts way beyond what I expected, and recharges easily with the Kodak recharger base. Overall a small, light, easy to use superb camera.
