What Are The Basics Of Digital Photography?
Such data is captured in tiny little bits of information called megapixels. Each megapixel makes up one dot of color in an image and together all of these dots of color, when arranged properly, reproduce the image you photographed to create a complete picture. It’s a little more complicated than all that, but for digital photography basics, that pretty much covers it. The more megapixels, or the higher the number of megapixels you have, the more data you have available to recreate the image. So as a rule, higher megapixels equals a higher quality photograph, particularly when rendered or printed at a very large size. While many digital cameras today boast resolutions of 8 megapixels per inch or higher, this is actually more than necessary to create most common portrait prints. For instance, to create a high quality print photograph in an 8″x10″ size, you really only require 3 to 5 megapixels per inch if the camera and the camera sensor itself are high quality.
