. Pixels

A digital camera image is a collection of small

 

Pixel

dots called “pixels”. The more pixels there are

 

 

in an image, the more detail there will be.

 

 

However, you generally can do with fewer

 

 

pixels when printing an image (L size)

 

 

through a print service, attaching an image to

 

 

e-mail, when viewing the image on a

 

 

computer, etc.
