What is a Mega Pixel?
• 1.3 MegaPixel Camera • 2.1 MegaPixel Camera • 6.0 MegaPixel Camera Mega = 1 million Using our example of a 6 x 6 pixel image: Let’s say you bought a camera that produced pictures that were 6 x 6 pixels. This camera would then be a 36 pixel camera! (6 x 6 = 36) Let’s say your camera produces pictures that are: 1280 x 960 pixels 1280 x 960 = 1,228,800 pixels = 1.2288 MegaPixels But the manufacturers round up and call it a 1.3 MegaPixel Camera.
