recent history of digital photography could be described as a megapixel
war. With technological advancements that often come every six months,

endless arms race to garner the most megapixels. Today, cameras are more than just the sum of their megapixels.

As a result, camera manufacturers are competing on a much broader battlefield, each trying to distinguish themselves.   |
