Digital Camera - Sony and Nikon email this discussion to a friend?

jinfolder (54)3 years ago

I use Nikon D-4500 digital camera. It is a 4 mega pixel camera with 4x optical zoom.
Recently I have compares its picture quality with some sony 6 mega pixel models.
What I felt is the image quality is same and in some cases Nikon performed better than Sony.
What is your opinion.

The quality of a picture doesn't always depend on the camera max resolution.The picture quality depends on the quality of the lenses, lighting, camera settings etc.

unless you are going to enlarge the photo to at least 11 x 14 or crop the photo, you are not going to see any difference between 4 and 6 megapixels, it's just a marketing scheme. Most likely the Nikon does perform better sense nikon usually has better cameras than sony.

I'm betting the Nikon has a nicer lens than the Sony.

Megapixels don't make much of a difference in the smaller prints. I have a very nice 2 megapixel Nikon that is still a nice camera. It came out about 8 years ago now, but was $700 back then and is still very nice and better than a lot of the cameras out there.

I also think the Nikkor lenses of Nikon is making the difference.
