This is usually a specification on a digital camera that describes the maximum number of pixels that will be stored in a given image - in this case, 16 million pixels (mega = million). Theoretically, this means that the camera can store more information, so it brings more detail to an image that you take. However, other aspects of Photography go much further towards capturing an accurate image, so don't base a camera purchase on megapixels alone.

640 x 480 pixels in megapixels?

To convert 640 x 480 pixels to megapixels, you first calculate the total number of pixels by multiplying the width and height: 640 x 480 = 307,200 pixels. Since one megapixel is equal to one million pixels, you then divide 307,200 by 1,000,000. This results in 0.3072 megapixels.


How much is 600 tvl in megapixel?

To convert 600 TVL (TV Lines) to megapixels, you can use the general approximation that 1 TVL is roughly equivalent to 0.0005 megapixels. Therefore, 600 TVL would be approximately 0.3 megapixels (600 TVL * 0.0005 MP/TVL). However, keep in mind that this is a rough conversion and the actual pixel count can vary based on specific camera and image processing characteristics.


How many mega-pixels do you need for a top quality 8 X 10 picture?

For a top-quality 8 x 10 print, you generally need a resolution of at least 300 dots per inch (dpi) for optimal clarity. This translates to a minimum of around 2400 x 3000 pixels, which is approximately 7.2 megapixels. However, using a camera with 10 megapixels or more will provide additional detail and flexibility for cropping or adjustments.


What is the formula to calculate the number of 7.1 megapixel photos that can be stored in 512 MB?

We have to remember that: 1) 1 PIXEL=3 BYTES=24 BITS (FROM A COLOUR PERSPECTIVE, SINCE THE NUMBER OF BITS HAVE TO BE MULTIPLIED TIMES 3. THAT IS, 8 TIMES 3 EQUALS 24) 2) 1 MEGAPIXEL=3 MEGABYTES (APROXIMATELY) 3) 170.6 MEGAPIXELS= 512 MEGABYTES 4) THE ANSWER IS... APROXIMATELY 25 IMAGES OF 7 MEGAPIXELS EACH WILL FIT INTO A 512 MEGABYTES MEMORY CARD.
