Megapixels of Doom

Copyright 2005 Mark Meshulam

There seems to be a file size disconnect between pictures routinely snapped by most digital cameras, and the desire of many amateur photographers to share their pics as email attachments or online.

Photographically, most of us are using an elephant gun to shoot a flea. We respond like addicts when each camera ad offers to place yet more megapixels at our disposal, and we brag at cocktail parties that ours has more than yours. But such are actions of the uninformed.

In the real world, unless you are a pro, all those pixels are unnecessary and can bring trouble.

A very average digital camera will take a snapshot which is 2048 x 1536 pixels (dots). If you multiply the two numbers, you get 3, 146,000 pixels, or dots which comprise your picture. This is the number (3.1 megapixels) the camera companies tout as being more wonderful than sex and drugs taken in unison.
