By Michael Carr, About.com

Four megapixel digital cameras can really go a long way without costing a fortune. You can get some great prints as big as 8x10. Many times, these cameras start having some useful extra features and powerful optical zoom lenses. Here is a guide to the top digital cameras with four megapixels.

1. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ4S 4.0 Megapixel Digital Camera

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ4S 4.0 Megapixel Digital Camera
The lens is definitely the top selling point for this camera. At a whopping 12x optical zoom, the Leica lens is the equivelant of a 400mm film camera lens. It shoots video at 30 frames per second, and has 11 scene modes. While this isn't for someone seeking a compact camera (it weighs more than 11 ounces), it is great for someone who wants to do more advanced photography without dropping a lot on a camera.
