Pixels do not have a size! It's just a number or code in the computer. The size depends on how you see it. On a screen or a print. A good print is 300 ppi. That is app. 12 pixel/mm, making one pixel app. 0,08mm. On a screen (72 ppi) the same photograph will show one pixel app. 4,16 times larger, which is app. 0.34 mm - unless you scale it down to fit the svreen, of cource.
