Password was dun wrong.

You are only using 4 megapixels of a 8 mega pixel camera?

And 4 megapixels is more than 10:80P?

Did not no that dose that mean that my 6.0 mega pixel Nikon is better than 35mm film?

?

 

 I'm guessing that if they do the full 8mp it would add up to too large a file (24 pics per sec for 2 hours!) and possibly the camera wouldn't be able to save the files to the memory card fast enough to keep up with the pulley system.

4mp is still a large photo on a tv, it should be more than adequate for 1080.  And no a 6 mp camera is not better resolution than 35mm film, but 6mp is higher than HD tv and 35mm is significantly better than HD tv (when shot properly).  I think I read somewhere that quality slide film is the equivalent of 50mp or more.
