In digital imaging devices megapixels define the resolution range when the number of pixels is equal to, or greater than 1,000,000 pixels.Found by multiplying the active horizontal by active vertical pixels. eg SXGA is 1280 x 1024, or 1,310,720 pixels. This could be called a 1.3-megapixel device. MPEG Moving Pictures Expert Group. Designers of the MPEG formats standards.

A measure of resolution that reflects the ability of a digital camera to record detail. The more megapixels a camera has, the more detail its images can contain and the more they can be enlarged without losing clarity. More megapixels aren't always necessary, however.
