Re: What size print from 6mp sensor

As others have noted, with a decent 6MP image, you can get an acceptable 12x18 print. But, if you're using a loupe to compare it with a print from a much higher resolution camera, you might see a difference.

That said, the lens may have a greater impact on your picture quality than the camera. The older super-zooms would start to show their weaknesses clearly even at 6MP.
