A digital picture is made of numerous dots
called pixels. Although you cannot see the
difference on the camera’s screen, the more
pixels the finer the picture will be when it is
printed on a large piece of paper or displayed
on a PC monitor. Picture quality refers to the
compression rate when saving digital
pictures.
