Defeats the purpose of having the 4 megapixels then.

Why, the point of the post is to show that kind of capabilites the G3 has, and resizing the will not do that. If you want them resized because they take too long to load, too bad.

When will people learn it's not about the megapixels...it's about the sharpness. More megapixels does not mean better image. <sigh>

The problem is that the 4 megapixel capability only comes in handy when making BIG prints when you've got a sharp image first...for web usage it's worthless.

indeed. If you can't resize a picture and still look good then it's not worth it. Otherwise any 4MP camera will look good. Doesn't matter if it's a G3 or a Kodak Krap. For OBVIOUS reasons a macro taken with a 4MP is gonna look larger than a 3MP, 2MP but not necessarily better.

Again .. it's not about the MP.
