5MP

5MP refers to a resolution of approximately five megapixels. In digital imaging, a megapixel is one million pixels, which are the smallest individual units of a digital image. Therefore, a 5MP image is composed of roughly five million pixels. This resolution is commonly found in digital cameras, smartphone cameras, and security camera systems. A higher megapixel count generally allows for greater detail and the ability to crop an image without significant loss of quality. However, megapixel count is not the sole determinant of image quality; factors such as sensor size, lens quality, and image processing also play crucial roles. In the context of security cameras, 5MP resolution provides a balance between image clarity and file size, offering a good level of detail for identification purposes while remaining manageable for storage and transmission. It is a popular choice for many consumer and professional surveillance applications.
