Most people will never print their images. For these people three megapixels is overkill. Marketers sell the ill informed on the idea that more megapixels makes for a better camera. For those of us that print, and I mean print large, more megapixels comes in to play. I do prints as large as 60 inches and 24 megapixels is a factor for me because I print.   As pointed out earlier, the display you're viewing the "lower" end camera images on has more than enough pixels to give a great "digital" image. Start printing and going larger and larger and you will see where the lower megapixel image falls apart.</blockquote>
