Our family member got new Sony Cybershot 5 MP cameras.
They were great cameras. The default setting of the cameras was 5 mp.
I am wondering what MP do you use for ordinary shooting.
5mp pictures were great but its 5mp size/picture is not so convenient for
emailing.



I always shoot at full resolution, super high quality JPEG with my
camera... because you never know if you are going to get a super image
that you might want to print.

As for emailing, just resize the pictures for that purpose. Some
programs will do it automatically to set parameters, I think Photoshop
Elements will, and probably other album programs as well.

Or just use whatever image editor came with your camera.

WinXP will do the resize if you just select the picture and elect to
send it email. Many programs, such as Irfanview, will also allow you to
resize, resample, and compress an image to get whatever filesize you want.
