If a camera says it is 5 MP, does it count a pixel as RGB or does an RGB pixel count as three pixels, one red, one green and one blue? I know the Foveon chip has the RBG info in the same sensor spot while other chips have a pattern of sensors to record what ends up as a pixel. If I set up my monitor to be 800x600, I think I understand that to be 800 R, 800G and 800 B phosphors across, so I will see 800 full color spots of resolution.
