Is the camera really 10 MP? Most list it as 20 MP.

Definitely 10 megapixels - says so on the camera & I don't think there were 20 MP cameras generally available when the G7 came out. I have two G70s because I need to take photos through a microscope & the G7 is, I understand, the last of the series which can be controlled from a laptop.

G7 is an old model (2005), and it's 10 MP. Maybe you're looking at comments about a newer model, which I assume would have a different name like G16 or something.

Yes it is. That's the reason I bought it greater clarity of pictures than the higher MP, particularly outside. Great all around, best camera!

Yes it is. I bought it for just that purpose as I foolishly let my old 8mm camera go when I upgraded.

Thank You for contacting SystemsDirect. It has a 0.3 Mega Pixel Fixed web camera. I hope that helps!Thanks,David, Sales

No, at least not what Electronics Basket is selling. Item description states: "HD 1080p video recording at 60 fps". 60 fps is a standard rate for NTSC US models. In actuality, I received a camera that records at 50 fps in PAL format from Electronics Basket.

yes it does...10 and 20 shot mode...the key with this high megapixel camera is using SDHC or class 6 memory cards... they are a must for high speed / high res cameras.

It shoots in 1440x1080 square pixels which is stretched to 1920x1080 so it's a little soft (but not very noticeable) It is records video to MiniDV digital and stills to SD. I would say it still compares quite well.

The 20X is advertised as "Intelligent Zoom". That is not the same as optical zoom. The ad clearly states that the camera is 10X optical zoom.

That is the resolution of the main (rear) camera. It is equivalent to 5 megapixels.

I have this camera and I can confirm that it is not HD. It's not advertised as HD (anywhere i've seen) so don't let anyone fool you. Sweet little camera though. And if you goto a store that price matches, WalMart has it for 299.88 right now and that's a great price.

Hi, that is interesting and is misleading for sports or nature photographers like myself. I did buy it for the noted mb speed on the label as I need speed on my shoots, and it bothers me that elsewhere it is stated as being slower than what I am being lead to believe, and need. I don't think though that that would restrict video taping as I also use as spares ScanDisk 45MBs cards which were the fastest at one time, but they take video with no issues. One must also take in the frames per second and pixel size of the movie. High speed cards can handle hi def to low definition. The first thing I did was change the movie mode to one of the lowest standard on all cameras that can take videos, and it still didn't work.i also have Lexar cards. They have issues when taking too many pictures such as action shots in sports, but are fine for video and general picture taking. I tested it when I got home and it had no issues videoing, along with the older 45mbs cards and still couldn't figure out why the PNY wouldn't take videos. Thank you. Rob

In looking up what AL-Musafer is saying, I found out cameras normally use about 1,500 pixels/cm^2, but this one is using 2,500, nearly twice as many. A 1/2.5 CCD is normally used in a 4 MP camera, not a 10 MP. This is also supposed to make it less effective in low light, but most of us have reported excellent low light ability. The Sony's I tested had equal zoom with greater sharpness, but I did not think to test low-light ability. In any event there are no shots I was able to take and detect a difference between the 10 MP and 5 MP settings.

The instruction manual says the camera has 30 thousand pixels, but there are a lot of misprints and things that just don't make sense throughout. I believe it is 300 thousand. Also, the card that comes with it is 2g, but you can buy whatever you want.

Samsung claims 5 Mp but doesn't state under what conditions. 5 Mp for a still photo is a LOT different than 5 Mp motion video. Samsung also states that in 30 frames per second the resolution is 1280 x 720 (at 30 frames per second). That equals 921,600 pixels or just less than 1 Mp.

You might have more luck if you change it from M3 fine to L superfine. M3 allows you to take more pictures on your memory card but you are only using 2M instead of the full 10M so that will reduce your image quality quite a bit.

It is 12 megapixels vs 10.0 for the Canon. It is 4x optical zoom vs 5x optical zoom on the Canon. We had the first version and loved it and bought this one this summer because we wanted an underwater enclosure. We have only had Olympus cameras since 1999 and we love them. We have two of these smaller cameras, a slightly bigger version and a full blown DSLR and we have never had any problems with them and we love the Scenes features in the ZX series cameras. And they are a couple hundred bucks cheaper than the Canon's that I can see. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't recommend using a micro SD for your camera. You're better off buying a regular SD card with 32 to 64 GB. Class 10 basically means when you are taking burst shots or shooting HD video you won't get any lag.
