megapixels

My experience is poor image quality, especially in high res shots. I'm not aware of a Taiwan company making products in the USA?.... I'd rather put in $20 more for one with an optical zoom with better reliability.

My husb and I just bought this. When I got it in the mail I was scared it would be horrible because it was SOOO lightweight. Turns out it's everything we wanted! It's easy to go thru the modes (i.e. video to camera, etc), the AA battery it needs lasts long, the quality is excellent, it came with a bunch of useful products, AND it's easy to carry where ever you go.
I'd definitely reccomend this product for parents. It takes a second to turn on and I have taken wonderful photos and videos of my toddler. Inside, as well as outside.
Oh and as for some idea of it's memory capability: the 16 MB internally held about 2 min video and 20 photos.

I just received this camera and I have to say, it's a good value for what it does. It's small and light, so it's easy to carry. I don't like the little camera bag that came with it, since it offers virtually no protection against knocks. I used a 128mb media card and at Hi-Res it had a capacity of 192 pictures (I didn't use it to capacity). I took 3 15 second videos and about 47 shots. You can make a video up to the amount of memory you have (128mb = about 28 minutes). The quality of the pictures was excellent when viewed on screen and when printed out. The screen is very small, but adequate for framing and review. Personally, I'm a viewfinder person. The video with sound was excellent. Photos taken indoors with the flash did not have the yellowish cast that many cameras in this price range have. The batteries still have plenty of charge to them, even with leaving the viewscreen on and several reviews of the photos and video. The one negative I found is that this camera has no facility for an a/c adapter, so uploads may chew battery power if that matters to anyone. I have a card reader, so it doesn't matter to me.
