Is that an 8-bit or 16-bit word?


Most of the time it's 16 bit word but really a word can be 32, 64 or more bit depending on the processor.

The same as for a 6 MP image but you pay a lot more for the camera.


although a picture is worth 1000 words but an image of 30MP would generally have more than 1000 words.

It depends. If it's a photo of a banana duct-taped to a sheet of canvas, not much needs to be said. "The banana," explains the artist, "is supposed to be a banana."

120 Grand for a piece of fruit fly food??? Eccentric billionaires have lost their minds...

The only art in that was selling it.

The whole point of owning a camera with the most megapixels is that you don’t have to explain things with words.

You just don't appreciate or even understand great art. The banana is just the window dressing, the duct tape is where you see the real art!!!
