they are dolts. It depends on printer quality.

... meh, but what do I know.
I just don't think that pixels can be directly compared to photo-film.

well...actually...they can.

If you blow up a film picture it gets pixelated (though in softer ways).

5MP is not quite on par with 35mm, I would say it really takes about 7MP or so.

Printers are completely irrelevant, since you have to be more concerned with the picture quality than anything else, since the PICTURE is the LASTING element. Plus, you can always get them printed up elsewhere.

Go 5MP or higher.
Get the one with the FASTEST reflex between pictures.
Get one with interchangable lenses (preferable SLR style).
