What do you think about this camera?

[MaryAnnDVC]

I've got $75 to spend at The Sharper Image since they tortured me with bad customer service right before last Christmas. Just got their most recent catalog. So...is this camera any good? Or not worth it? Sure looks neat, and I could use a new toy!

(Right now, I've got it narrowed down to the camera, or the ionic dog brush that's supposed to make Simon not stink, or the razor that rips the hair out of one's legs. )

If you want huge Dan murphy style pictures, this camera is not going to do that. But for some simple quick snapshots that you can upload easily, then it should be just fine.

Given the other 2 choices that you have listed, it's a no-brainer. Although ripping my leg hair out does sound tempting.....

It's a tough choice. Hair removal toys are sssooo tempting.

Oh...and what are "pixels"??

 

[Cricket2]

Pixel (combination of Picture & Element) is the smallest element of a display which can be assigned a color. If your display is set to the maximum resolution, it is the smallest building block on the monitor. The more pixels/inch, the better the image should appear.

Pixels tell how "sharp" and clear an image is. The higher number of pixels, the better quality photo (I'm sure there is a better definition, this is just what I use). Here is what a 640x480 pixel (the biggest that camera can take) looks like. It I start making it larger, it will begin getting grainy. Hope that helps.
Edit: whoops, sorry Cricket, didn't see your reply

Ah! Now I get it. No, really, I do. Just gotta work on making the big decision now.

Thanks for the info.
