Do you enlarge a lot of images?
Now that you’ve identified the type of camera that’s best, you can determine how you will use the camera most of the time.
If you mainly want to make standard 4x6 snapshot prints, a camera with 6-megapixel resolution should be fine. Such a camera
will also let you make an 8x10 print of an entire, uncropped image. But if you plan to enlarge images more than that or to
blow up only parts of them you’ll want an 8- to 10-megapixel camera.
