Resolution & publication quality: Digital cameras

[Dave Carmean]

>Resolution is not really publication quality, but nothing
>is in digital photography short of the $26,000.00 models

Most publications print at 300dpi- so as long as the image is not enlarged,
a camera with a resolution of 1200 X 1500 pixels will do a 4x5" picture
that, as far as resolution goes, should be publication quality.
