Question

What is the best quality pictures on a digital camera...2m, 3m or 5m?

Answer 1

5m.. the higher number is better.

Answer 2

5m. Meaning 5 mega-pixels, or 5 million pixels, which gives you more details =)

Answer 3

At such low megapixel numbers, I think noise shouldn't be too much of an issue, so I'd say the 5 megapixel gives you better image quality. Keep in mind though, that higher megapixels doesn't always mean better image quality though. More pixels on a small sensor often lead to picture noise. Picture noise is like film grain, it can ruin an otherwise pretty and awesome shot. In the end, 8 megapixels should be the upper limit- anything over would be overkill unless the camera features a larger-than-average imaging chip (sensor).
