Anyone ever use a DSC-U50? Can you post some images from one please? I like the style of the camera but I am concerned about the 2 Megapixel limit. I am not concerned about zoom....I just want the smallest camera I can find to keep on a keychain or the like so it is available at any moment to take a photo. ....just a side comment here...I am not a fan of the phones with a camera in them...so that is not an option for me.

2 pegapixel limit will give you a good 4X6 print and I heard but not sure a good 8X10. I sold a number of Sony DSC--but older series a couple days ago. I hope that helps. Jinx

My first digi camera was a 2meg and took really good pics (nikon coolpix 800).The first picture I posted here "Bernadette" has blown up to a 17 x 22 and framed for my wifes birthday. The first 7 or so pics are from this camera. check them outif you like.The only thing about some of the 2 meg cams are the limited options.

I have a Sony Mavica FD100 and it is only 1.2 Megs! Any images in my gallery that are taken with a Digital Camera are taken with this camera. (have a look if you like) I will tell you this, I got a lot of bang for my buck with this Sony cam, and have honestly been so pleased with it that I am looking at the newer Sony cams with serious intent! I have printed images from this camera in 8 x 10 and you can't tell that they are digital, they printed out excellent! I once printed on of my pix from this cam in 11 x 14 (have never really had any reason to print them that big, just wanted to see) and it also came out very well!(you could see just a tad bit of pixelation though). As far as I am concerned Sony makes a wonderful digital camera!
