Yeah, some company marketing duds try to make us think, like the current ad on
TV, that Bigger & Faster is Better -- not necessarily. When you buy
one of those big mega pixel cameras, the one thing you want to check is how
small a pic will it take -- mine will go down to 640 x 480, as well as them
high pixel shots that are only good for cropping out a little section or 11x 17
prints.<br>
