Yes and no.

Higher resolution images usually require more memory to store them.

However different photographic file formats may take different amounts of memory for the same resolution image (e.g. a jpg file will take less memory than a raw file for the same resolution image because the jpg is compressed and the raw is not compressed).

Check the resolution of your camera to determine actual resolution, however if it saves the photos as jpg files or other compressed formats some "minor" details will be lost that would not be lost in raw files or other uncompressed formats (at the expense of needing more memory to store the files).

What is considered a high resolution camera?

Megapixels (MP )are used to measure the resolution of photos taken with digital cameras. Therefore, the higher number of megapixels of a camera corresponds with a higher quality photo resolution. Typically, a digital camera with 16MP or higher is considered to be a high resolution camera. For the higher-end and more professional digital SLR cameras, 20MP or higher is considered to be a very high resolution camera.
