hi my uncle was interested in purchasing this camera to take pictures of his artwork to put onto his website. i have this thing against SiPix first of all because it's not a "brand name" per se and because i think these SiPix cameras are all basically glorified web-cams. this thing does have 1.3 megapixels though. please tell me why it's wrong to buy it for $79. i was trying to convince him to buy a "better" camera. even at 1.3 megapixels there must be better cameras out there ... even if it's from used (for example, from FS/FT).

here's what i told him: it doesnt have an LCD, it has internal memory (not expandable), it looks cheap, no zoom whatsoever.

opinions please?

With no color LCD display, you have no idea how your shot turned out until you view it on your computer. Does this camera have a flash? Webcams are usually horrible in low-light conditions. I would also imagine the image quality is very poor with this camera.
