View Single Post - What megapixel do you shoot your photos in?

Do you shoot on the highest res, or do you shoot with a lower one? Does your memory card restrict you from taking alot of high res photos? Just wondering what people do with their cameras.

I got a Canon PowerShot A470 that can shot up to 7.1MP. With my 8GB SDHC card I can shot over 2500 pics on the highest res setting. But I can almost double it by shooting a 3MP shot. I know my sister shoots in 3MP all day long just because she only has a 1GB memory stick in her camera. My other friend shoots full res with 2GB SD card, and she ran out of room last night on her card. I had to borrow her one of my spare 1GB cards I keep in my camera bag.
