How much do megapixels matter?

I'm stuck between the canon rebel t4i and the nikon d3200. The nikon has 24 megapixels, whilst the t4i has 18. I have a retina display macbook pro and i will be wanting to take pictures up to 2880x1800 in size. Can the t4i handle this? I like everything else about the t4i. I will be shooting pictures of nature and also taking video. Can you explain how many megapixels i need and what they do? Will i be able to take 2880x1800 pics with the t4i? With the d3200? All feedback is appreciated; thanks so much in advance.

Best flash for portraits and other objects?

I have a Nikon D5000. I have just been using the automatic flash on my camera, but I want to improve the look of my portraits. I'm totally clueless about what flash to get and would like some advice. What flash do you guys use? Any tips?
Note: I may be covering a late afternoon wedding later this year, what would you suggest for this?

Nikon lense and screen?

Hi, I recently purchased a Nikon D5100, I had the D3100 before and for some reason now I'm annoyed by how you have to look through the watchamacallit to take a picture.Id much rather have it show on the screen like a point and shoot almost. Can anyone tell me how to switch the view?

My Nikon D5000 delays in taking pictures?

I'm an Ametuer photographer, and I have a Nikon D5000, I've had it for about 2 years now, and it seems that when I'm taking pictures it takes a long time for the camera to actually take. I'm getting frustrated with my camera because I've missed So many great facial expressions and perfect moments because my camera wouldn't take the picture. I don't understand why. Is it a setting on my camera? Maybe, something to do with the lens? I've used friend's Cannon cameras before and they don't do this, I'm considering switching brands, but I've got so much money invested in Nikon, I don't want it to be a waste.

Canon 60d and the nikon d7000?

Well i see that the Canon 60d has a burst rate of 5.3fps and the d7000 has 6fps. Now is that alot of difference? I'm merging into sports photography and want either of these cameras. Because the nikon has 0.7fps more than the canon, does that mean that then nikon is better for shooting sports photography (Football)(UK) or is there other things that will make a camera shoot nice crisp pictures when things are moving? That i don't know about and have to look out for.
Cheers

Was the 16-85mm a wise purchase in addition to the 18-105?

My parents recently bought the Nikon D7000 with the 18-105 kit lens online. (I know most say that it's a better idea to simply buy the body and skip the kit lens, which tends to have lesser quality, but the body and the entire set were both the same price.) This will be our first digital SLR, although we do have experience with film and point and shoots.
I tried to do some research online about which zoom lenses to buy in addition to the kit lens and on a Flickr forum many people said they used their 16-85 most often when leaving the house. We decided to order this lens as well but now I'm not so sure if it was necessary. The 18-105 has the same aperture range (f/3.5-5.6) and it offers a slightly larger zoom range. A comparison between the 16-85 and 18-200 on Ken Rockwell's website revealed there wasn't a whole lot of difference between the 16mm and 18mm wide angles. I realize the kit lens is made of a plastic mount, and the quality of its materials is cheaper, but is there a recognizable difference in quality in the photos produced by the 16-85 and 18-105?
It just seems to me that the 16-85 is simply a more convenient, condensed version of the 18-105 lens--am I mistaken?
Hmph this question ended up longer than I thought it would be but basically, I'm wondering if my parents' money was well-spent on the 16-85 or if it should be exchanged for another lens with a similarly versatile range but a larger aperture.
