well, Megapixel indicates image resolution of one million pixels or more. The more pixels in an image, the higher the resolution and therefore the greater the quality of the image. When it comes to digital cameras, the picture quality capability is measured in megapixels. For example, a 3.1 megapixel camera can take pictures with a resolution of 2048 x 1536, which equals 3,145,728 pixels. That is, the resulting image will be made up of 3.1 megapixels, or over three million dots. The number of megapixels required to suit your needs depends on what the camera will be used for, and what size prints are desired, if any. The higher the resolution —- or greater the megapixels —- the more flexibility the camera will have in terms of being able to deliver high resolution prints in large sizes.

One of the most common terms used in digital photography is megapixel. It comes from the word pixel which in computer lingo, means, 'a dot.' These little dots, or pixels, store color information and their number per square inch determines the quality of the picture. The picture that has more pixels per square inch is much better than pictures that have less number of pixels.

The same applies to digital cameras. A five megapixel camera is considered much superior to a one megapixel camera. This is because the pictures taken by a five megapixel camera will have much higher resolution than those taken by a one megapixel camera.

In simple metric terms, a megapixel is equivalent to one million pixels. When a camera seller shows a 1 megapixel camera it means that this camera can shoot a picture that can have one million pixels. Similarly, a ten megapixels camera can shoot an image that can have ten million pixels.
