10MP camera for coin photos?

[Malcolm.mtts]

To get good photographs printed from ANY SIZE mp camera depends on your printer and how you set it up.

Poor quality prints normally occur, not because of the camera, but because the printer is not configured to give good results.

Trouble is that most people don't like to wait ages for a print to be made and set the dpi lower to speed the process up..... BIG MISTAKE ... they then think their camera MP is too little because the print is poor (ish)

Probably the best general purpose setting for good prints would be 300 DPI (dots per inch)

Yankee.. optical and digital zoom.

When looking for a camera with zoom look how much optical zoom it has and ignore the digital zoom rating if you want to take quality photographs.

Normally your camera will use optical zoom first and then extend into digital zoom.

When using digital zoom you will automatically sacrifice quality for distance.

For best results switch off your digital zoom.
