I think most people who are familiar with resolutions and what they look like would, first of all, notice that 4:1 is a pretty crazy aspect ratio, and second, know that a "pixel" can mean either a dot, the smallest element of the image, or a group of dots that makes up any color when combined.  Yes, we assume that a color display will typically have three times the "pixels" of a monochrome display of the same resolution, but I wouldn't call it lying, rather, simply stating the specs in the most impressive way legal.  Did they mention anything about a color screen? If not, they are being more accurate by not implying groups of pixels used with color displays.<br><br>BTW, I can't remember where I saw this, but on another cheap camera website somewhere I actually saw a "4x zoom" quoted, which was "1x optical plus a 3x digital" zoom.  Seriously.  :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Patrick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 1st 2008 7:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AgfaPhoto's DV-5000G camera plays games, falls short of potential]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/31/agfaphotos-dv-5000g-camera-plays-games-falls-short-of-potentia/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/31/agfaphotos-dv-5000g-camera-plays-games-falls-short-of-potentia/</guid><description><![CDATA[this is a fake Sony Camera i bought from china about 5 months ago and i can provide u with pictures if you want!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Amr]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 3rd 2008 12:11AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
