Opinion needed about a digital 9.0megapix cam i bought

Yeah, I'd say you just threw out a few pounds. That's no where near what a 9mp camera would cost. I just bought a Nikon D50 for $650, that's what, 300 pounds or so? It's 6mp. I think you got caught in an Ebay scam. Let us know if it works!

By the way, my 6mp camera takes photos that are 3,008 x 2,000, that says its 2832x2124 INTERPOLATED! Meaning it's maybe a 640x480 :) And digital zooms are useless if you expect quality.
