Q. OK....I have a habit of taking pictures of everything. When it comes to people, I take pictures of them off guard. Meaning, off guard is always the best rather than posing. When it comes to nature and such, I take pictures of sunsets, trees, leaves, fire hydrants, basically anything. The odd ones always look nice and unique. Well, my camera was stolen long ago so I started taking pictures with my phone. My phone has 2.0 mega pixel, I know, not much....but it does take some *really* nice photos. I am going to buy a camera from someone, and I was wondering, just how good is 4.0 mega pixel digital cameras? the camera I am going to buy is a Kodak easyshare (not sure of exact model) and I was just wondering if I should go ahead and buy it. Here are two pictures of the camera-

OK, I know....my camera photos are not *that* good. I guess it all depends. I actually had to "get to know" my camera phone before taking good pictures. If I am not in proper lighting, or if I zoom, or if I put on the flash in the dark....the slightest mistake can turn into a horrible photo. So I guess 2.0 megapixel aint *that* good....it depends how you work it. Please let ,me know what you all think? thanks =)
JUST AN UPDATE:
I went and just bought the camera. I have to say, I am really pleased with it. The reason I did buy it is because I am only going to use it for outdoor wildlife, nature, etc. I will say that I am going to take the advice and invest in a 10 MP camera. I wonder how good that would be if a 2.0 and a 4.0 is acceptable. Thank you all for your answers, I wish I could give you all best answer. I gave everyone a thumbs up! :)
Thanks again!

A. You will only notice the difference if you enlarge the pics past 8x10. If you tend to view them on screen or print out 4x6 you will be just fine with the 4mp.
Why is the Leica M8 so good?
Q. Why is the Leica M8 good what makes it Unique from the Dslr's?
A. Well, in a lot of ways, in 2013, the Leica M8 is actually not so good by current standards. It's a crop sensor digital camera with, what is now considered, poor high ISO noise redux. The M9 is another story however.
The reason the M8 used to be considered a great digital camera and still is if you're on a budget, is that it is a rangefinder camera. That in itself makes it unique from DSLR's because it is simply not a Single Lens Reflex camera.
If you want to study up on the differences between rangefinders and SLR's, there are hundreds of in-depth discussions all over the internet. Essentially it boils down to rangefinders being smaller, quieter, better at manual focusing in low light and due to the lack of a flipping mirror, viewing is more of the moment as well as handheld slow shutter speeds more free of vibration. The problem is that there are limitations to composition and use of macro and longer telephoto lenses as well as zoom lenses with rangefinders. Also, some folks just don't like focusing through them.
Whats-more, Leica build quality far exceeds those of most popular manufacturers. They hand-assemble their camera and lenses with higher quality materials and more tightly fitting parts. This results in cameras and lenses that feel very enjoyable to use but also that last through extreme abuse and continue to work well for decades.
Leica is also world renowned for the high optical performance of their lenses. They are virtually devoid of optical abberations commonly found in Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Olympus and other more popular lensmakers products.
Hope this is useful!
