    Why does the video from my SZ Motion Eye camera look grainy? You can see the dots crawling. It looks like the video is taken from a very cheap cellphone.

    The same goes with the FE. Not a big deal to me.

    mm.. I saw somewhere that the camera's resolution changed on the new SZ series (SZ3xx and above). Can anyone confirm this ? I just can't find information about the camera on the especification sheet.

    Isn't the camera still 1.3 Mega Pixels? Just like most cell phone cameras' resolution....

    Most cell cameras are still VGA only.
