But I think my statement re "Rita" stands. Unless, of course, you are Rita, and then you're both or either.... -- john mcwilliams

One thing is that the pixels are right on the surface of the display, with no intervening optics, and there's no "ink spread" which you might get in some printing processes. Of course, if you want to crop half the linear image you've taken, you then need four times as many pixels, so having that 8-10-12MP camera does make some sense.... Oh, and I've seen figures of around 200 pixels per inch for acceptable photos, and that on a 6 x 4 inch print is 1MP - others say 300 pixels per inch so that's 2MP. Cheers, David |
