Hello:
I was just wondering what digital cameras are the best for making 8×10 pictures? I have heard that some cameras make up to a 5×7 picture when printed out,but I would like one that makes a really nice 8×10 picture,especially if it is a really nice family picture. Thank you for any suggestions that you would be willing to share with me!! 
Hi,
Take a digital with the most megapixels you can. They are still expensive when they are better quality, but the result is quite different to. And anyway, they are much less expensive than years ago. You want something practical, beautiful, that makes a good job and durable, no, if so, you should have a good one.
Usually, you won’t have a compact one if you are buying a 10 megapixels, but some turns around 7 or 8 megapixels, are compact, with a good zoom, at least 3 times zoom (or higher), and i guess those ones would be fine with your 8 X 10 pictures.
I also believe it depends of what equipment you will be using for developping your pictures. For instance, i could develop those directly from my all-in-one copior. But some people only have a printer or other have a special equipment which is only used for developping digital pictures.
Also, be sure to ask all the features this digital camera would do to the salesperson prior to buy it. Take a list with you of everything you would like this digital camera also does (like zooming).
Hope it helps.
Any Digital Camera with an Optical zoom and at least 3.2 Mp’s will make a DECENT 8X10. Ofcourse if u want a bit more detail, 4.0 Mp and higher. I have a 5, 7, 8, and 9 Mp cameras, and make many 8X10 prints.
