bah, I thought you meant they were the same camera! srcosmo September 22 2004, 14:31:12 UTC
Probably the 1.3MP one.

But if you have the manufacturer & model numbers, that would help

but then some other ones said the 640x480 thing and I got confused!

Okay, this camera has a true optical resolution of 640x480 (or 0.3MP), and an interpolated resolution of 1.3MP.

So its pictures will look bigger on your screen, but have about the same level of detail as the other cameras.

I'd say get it if it's the best deal, but the "1.3MP" is not worth paying extra for.

so this has nothing to do with your camara and I apologise, but are you up for a coffee next week?

I come back from Toronto on Wednesday the 29th so I am home for coffee anytime after that. I'm working until the 8th so anytime between the 30th and the 8th would be the best cause I'll still be downtown all day.

640 x 480 can also be put into a resolution, if it is multiplied out it is 0.307 MP as opposed to the 1.3 MP of the other camera you are looking at. If you don't already know, on computers a pixel is basically a dot of a particular color, so the more "dots" the better the quality picture you will get, ie it will look less grainy. pretty standard today for web cams is a camera that will give you 640x480 pixels at about 30 frames per second.

Thanks for the info "J". I'd like to know more about this stuff so I don';t have to freak out when I try to buy something electronic.

You're amazing. Just look at those music taste buds!
I'm big on the Sarah Slean and Blue Rodeo, and while we're on the bigger names Martina Sorbara, Hayden, the list continues in this direction...
I'm a huge local gal fan: Amy Campbell, Rose Cousins, Andrea Sommers, Jill Barber, the-moved-to-Ontario-Susan Gale. Fabulous voices in the Maritimes.

You should go see the show at the Khyber this Thursday - Somacorp. It's my friend Dave who's this funky bass/guitar player and the singersongwriterkeyboardguitarplayer Andrea Sommers new band. They've got a nice funk feel to them.
