I am wanting to buy a digital camera with some Christmas money and it says it has 1.3 MP storage but doesn't say exactly how many pictures it can store. I want to know whether it is a good amount and worth my money.. thanks muches!

Thanks everyone. But I don't know if I will get that one anymore. I am now deciding to move on and look for other better ones.

Not exactly sure what you mean by 1.3 MP storage. Mp usually relates to megapixels, or the maximum resolution capable by the camera. MB, or megabytes is what determines the amount of storage available on the flashcard. Flashcards usually start at 128Mb and go up from there (256, 512, 1Gb, etc..). Most modern digital cameras have a built in 128Mb storage with a flashcard slot to accomodate additional storage. But in answer to your question, how many pictures your camera can hold depends on the resolution you set your camera to. The higher the resolution the less picture capacity. For a 128Mb storage, you can get about 60 shots at 600x480 resolution stored in a .jpg format. Have the camera seller explain the camares features to you and an estimate of how many pictures that camera will store. Good Luck.

1.3 MP refers to megapixels and is not the amount of memory/storage in the camera. Megapixels relate to the resolution of the picture and the maximum print or display size. Go to the manufacturer's website and find out how much storage comes with the camera, and whether it takes removable storage media. It should also tell you the "estimated" amount of photos which can be stored, based on the megapixels and compression rates.

1.3MP is the quality or resolution of the camera. The memory card in the camera is what stores the information. You should check and see how big that is. If you tell us it's size we can tell you how many pictures it should be able to hold.
