Contrary to popular belief, the megapixel rating doesn't really mean much. except that you can print picture out at a much larger scale without the picture showing it's grain, also know as pixelization. For the size of picture normally taken and posted on forums like these you could actually use a simple 1.1 megapixel camera and still produce gorgeous pictures. 1.1 megapixel cameras will allow approximate maximum size of 4" x 6" pictures without showing signs of grain. Versus an 8.0 mega pixel camera that'll approximate a picture of an 11" x 17" print without getting anywhere near the possibility of showing it's grain.
