The Mega Pixel Myth
What you *really* want are �better� pixels, not more of them. Contrary to popular belief, adding more pixels to the same size sensor isn�t going to help you very much. In fact, it may hurt. Why? It�s reallly quite simple: A limited amount of light gets through the lens and hits the sensor in your camera. It�s really quite small. At some point, if you add more pixels, those pixels aren�t picking up enough light to be useful. Instead, they�re making your photo noisier and reducing the quality. [on Smug Blog]
