megapixel doest matter.. u wont require more than 10MP even.. 12mp or 14mp wont provide better quality picture.. dey can only provide better quality only while printing picture (poster size),,

wht matter is sensor size, optical zoom, LCD screen size., battery etc.. and in all such things powershot is clearly leading
