Most of the postings in this website appear to define "photo quality" digital cameras as those cameras which are capable of capturing photos in the 2+ megapixel range. Final print pixel resolutions of at least 120 ppi have also been debated as being "photo quality".

My question and situation is this. I own both a Sony (VX-1000) and Canon
(XL-1) digital video camera. Using the still capture mode of these video cameras results in capturing a photo which is 720 x 480 ppi. This resolution is extremely low compared to even the most modest priced digital still cameras on the market today. I am interested in capturing some "photo quality" digital stills with a maximum final print size of 4" x 5 " (approx.).

My question therefore is, what is the maximum "photo quality" print size of these two video cameras?

-Well said! Be careful though... I've been called an arrogant, Masseratti driving, perfectionist for making the same argument

-If the difference in fidelity between CD's and analog reproduction equipment was as large as exists between film and digital photos, none would be sold.
