What is Image Resolution?

Every digital image is made up of picture elements (pixels) and the number of pixels determines the resolution. The more pixels your photo has, the clearer your photo remains as you increase its size. At the same time, the greater the resolution, the more memory is required to store the image. The greater the resolution the larger you can blow up the image.

Digital Camera Guide

Your digital camera can be set to a high resolution or low. If it is set to high, your memory will be filled up more quickly, but quality will be much improved. The following is an approximate guide for blowups. The image may be degraded by dirty lenses or low light. It is recommended that you set the mode on as hich a qulity as you can with as low a compression as possible.
