Camera for Images 3800 pixels wide

[Hawk Tuah]

To make nice backdrops that fit my 3 monitors (3840x1024) I need a camera to take an image of that resolution width.

I just need to know how many megapixels that equates to. Been looking for a chart somewhere but unsuccessfully.

I'm guestimating its around 10mp, so I'm thinking of the Casio Exilim Z1000. (My previous camera was an exilim and its been great).

This is a very odd reason for buying a specific camera. Strange. Very strange.

I'm not just buying a camera for this.

I got water in my old exilim (z3) and when I get a new one, I'd like to be ablet to use some of the pictures I take as my desktop background. If I use the pictures I've taken on the current camera as backgrounds, then they look all blury blown up to that size.

Its nice to use to use holiday snaps and such like as your desktop background, so I may as well get a camera capable of doing that. I'm not after a slr, just a point and shoot everyday camera, but with resolution capable of 3840 wide. I know cameras dont take that exact rest. I'd just cut the top and bottom off a normal shot to fit the view.

I know I can resize upwards, but it never looks quite as good as a photo in itsd native resolution.
