Looking for a pocket size digital camera, the DiMage XG is 3.2 MP, 3X opt zoom, and is about 3 1/2 X 2 3/4X 7/8 inches and will fit in a shirt pocket. Anyone have any experience with this unit? I have a couple of other cameras, digital & film, but they are too big and they usually stay home. New Egg has this unit for $265. Thanks, Ron

Creek,

No experince with that camera, but I've ordered from New egg before. Good company! :div20:

I guess I'll answer my own post, I bought one from Amazon.com, even cheaper than newegg. The camera is great, small enough to carry in my shirt pocket, takes great photos, if I do my part. Being so small & light, I have to really pay attention to holding it still & keeping my finger out of the shot (I have several pix of my little finger). With the 128 MB chip it will take about 150 stills or 6 minutes of movies w/sound at 15fpm or half that at 30fpm. Battery life seems to be excellent (I have taken several dozen pix and the battery is still going strong, which is way better than my older Kodak. It has more features than I will probably use, but they are there if I want them. All in all I think it is a great camera for carrying while sledding or ATV'ing, at least I will always have it with me when I see something I want to record for posterity.
