Yes, they certainly can. It depends on how large a print you want to make, the quality of the lens used and the physical size of the sensor. Any one meg camera could make great 4x6 or 5x7 prints. In fact, many could make great 8x10 prints. The quality of the lens is, of course, a factor in ANY photographic discusssion. The size of the sensor is important because this determines the actual size of the individual receptor sites on the sensor. This is why a professional DSLR with a 24x36mm sensor and 10 million pixels produces a much better image than a camera phone witha 1/8 inch sensor and claiming 10 meg.

So, the question really is, which 5 megapixel camera are you asking about?

How many photos fit on a 4GB memory card in a 10-megapixel digital camera versus 4 megapixel?

On a 10 megapixel sensor you will probably be able to fit over twice the amount of photos that you will take with a 4 megapixel sensor. I guess 4,000 Photos compared to 2,000. There is always a BUT, 2,000 to 4,000 photos is not worth loosing so much resolution. You are still talking about thousands and I'm not sure if you will even be able to take 2,000 photos in 4 or 6 months. I'll say take the 10 Megapixel camera with the 4 GB Card.


What does a camera look like?

Digital Cameras look almost like Film Cameras, only Digital Cameras are more "Computerized" and don't use film. Digital Cameras have an Addition from Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO, they have Mega Pixels which tell you what quality the photos come out as. Lower MP say 1.2MP is mostly used in cheaper Digital Cameras or web cameras, more expensive cameras can go up to 12.5MP or more, Digital Cameras also have an LCD Display so you can view photos instantly. The difference between Film and Digital is that with film once you take a photo its permanent on the film, Digital Cameras enable you to reuse the Memory card since you are able to delete photos.
