Hi people, i'm new to these forums and looking to purchase a new camera. Throughout my search on ebay i came across this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/12MP-ULTRASLIM-16MM-2-5-LCD-DIGITAL-CAMERA-VIDEO-WEBCAM_W0QQitemZ130027001746QQihZ003QQcategoryZ313 88QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I wos just wondering would it be worth the money or does anybody on here own it?

Thanks.

Don't buy it!
It says "(3.1MP Camera Sensor interpolated to 12.0MP)" meaning it really is a 3.1MP camera blown up to 12. No optical zoom. I doubt the image quality of such Ebay cameras with large 10MP+.... I was fooled once before I knew any better. :rolleyes:
At £89.99, I don't call it cheap.

It's a piece of cr@p, guaranteed to give you a poor taste of what can be done with a decent digital camera. It has a fixed 44mm equivalent lens (no optical zoom) and "8X Digital Zoom" which means that at full zoom, your 3MP images will look like brick sidewalks. Don't buy it!

If you need a good digital camera on a limited budget, why don't you go through the "Which Camera Should I Buy" checklist here, and maybe someone can give you a push in the right direction?
