My question may be simple but need some clarity.

If I intend on always printing 8x10 or 5x7 photos, what is the benefit of a higher megapixel camera.

If I take a picture w/ a 4mp camera and then reduce the image to fit on a 5x7, aren't I reducing the number of pixels?

Can someone please explain the benefit of taking a picture at 21x27 and reducing to a 5x7?

Thanks,
Mark
