Jim and Jim,
I was told by a salesman in the store (and we all know how little they
know), that for blowing up a picture to 4X6 or 5X7 that all I will need is a
5mp camera. She said I would not be able to tell the diff between a 5 and a
7mp camera on a computer screen or photos, as long as i didn't blow it up
extra large.
Is this accurate?
Can I get by with a 4mp or will I see a difference between 4 and 5 mp?

Does anyone have any recommendations of cameras I should look at?
Does anyone have any experience with the Canon PowerShot A610 Digital
Camera?
Get her the Nikon D50. Then, in a few years, she can upgrade to the
Nikon
D2X.

She'll be happy with the Canon A610. I'd look also at this one.

My daughter has a Nikon Coolpix 4500 (a couple years old now), and she
loves it.
