Hello Everyone I've done some looking around and so-far I like the Kodak Z915, has anyone used one of these yet (it's new)? It seems to have everything I need, but Mike Winkler said anything over 5-6 mega pixels may be too large and the Z915 is 10mp, would it still work to put pics on this sites photo section? Thanks and good day to all!
