my digital camera has 6.6 mega pixles and 512 mb is that alot and or good?

Answer 1

I'd say it was about average / above average these days........ but also depends what brand it is (some have better lenses than others), for example
Fuji / Nikon / Canon / Olympus / Sony = Good (usually)

Medion / Trust / other little known brand = alot of sucking through teeth as to whether it's any good or not.

Answer 2

All depends on what you want to do with your camera. 6.6 megapixels is great for many applications.

Size of the memory card is something that you need to decide on. You can probably store 150 to 220 images at 6.6 Mpixels on a 512 MB memory card (number of images depends on image quality settings on your camera, sensor noise, and quality of the image processing done by the camera). If 150 shots is enough for you, then a 512 MB memory card is fine. If you need more, then use a larger memory card. Memory cards are cheap these days. You can get 2 GB memory cards for under $40.

Answer 3

6.6 megapixels is plenty; you can make prints that are 8 x 10" in size very easily. A memory card of 512 mb is also good enough for shooting, you won't run out during a typical evening's worth of shooting, you should get a couple hundred of shots at the normal quality setting. It might not be enough for a long vacation though, so I would suggest more cards if you're planning on a vacation longer than just a weekend.

Answer 4

6.6 megapixels (what model camera is that?) is plenty good for most application. And a 512 mb memory card will hold quite a few pictures, as the answers above have stated.

But, memory cards are so inexpensive, you owe it to yourself to get one or two larger ones. I have 512 cards, but never pack them along because I prefer to have 1 or 2 mb cards in my cameras. That way, you can take extra shots and have more freedom to choose the 'perfect' pictures to preserve your memories. On a recent two week trip, I packed five 2mb memory cards and my daughter took along two 2mb memory cards. Currently, 2mb CF & SD cards can be found for under $20.

I hope you find this helpful.

Answer 5

It all depends on 1) how many pictures you will take. 2) What pixel size you shoot at. 3)What quality compression settings you use.

At your camera's megapixel rating, and your camera set to it's very best settings, you will get about 140 pictures. You never get the number of pictures the camera numbers are saying. For example, a 2 gig card is actually 1.8 gig.

If you don't take a lot of pictures, you will be just fine. If you take a really special vacation, you may want to consider moving up to a one or two gig card. That way, you will not only take very nice pictures but, you wil be able to shoot some short movies as well.

Answer 6

In my book, there's never a word "too much" in term of capacity. The bigger, the better. Of course, most of the time I won't need that extra space but once on a very blue moon, I'm thanking myself for having that kind of capacity.

6.6 megapixel, on the other hand is more than enough for most camera. My Canon Digital Rebel/300D shoot just as good as my current main camera Rebel XTi/400D.

Answer 7

My chart shows at 6 megapixels and a card of 512mb would give you about 160 shots. That to me is not that many shots.
6.6 is enough megapixels, I suggest at least a 1 GB memory.

Answer 8

that sounds fine to me
if you take alot of pictures
you may want to get a larger memory card

Answer 9

'Good' is relative, but yeah, that's pretty good. Both are good enough for most camera owners.
