No, has nothing to do with it. Take it back to try to show the salespeople the problem.
The memory stick has no effect. Check the camera settings (file size settings). A good quality picture will be 1-2mB in size. If they are that big, it may be a physical problem with the lens or CCD-take it back to the store.
No, but the following could help you find the problem with you picture quality. There could be a problem with the camera, but please read the information below. Hope this helps. If you still have problems, ask the camera dealer to check it out.
Most cameras will reset to original settings if batteries are removed for at least one minute. Remove extra memory to eliminate this as a possible problem. Insert fully charged batteries and restart the camera.
Before taking a picture, hold the shutter button halfway down to allow the camera to focus. If you are still having problems, set flash to on and not automatic. Flash is only good up to about 12 feet.
What gives a camera its picture quality?
The short answer is that it is mostly the skill of the photographer that causes high quality pictures. The lens and camera are very important, but the ability to set up the scene, adjust the cameras settings, and hold the camera very still or use a tripod with auto or remote shutter actuation when required is what gets the great pictures.
Many of the new cameras come with only an LCD screen. Would suggest that you find one that also has an optical view finder because the LCD screen is almost impossible to see in bright sun.
Higher mega pixels may not really be the best thing to look for. It is more expensive, takes longer to process, and may not be needed unless you are making a really large picture or blowing up a small part of a picture. …

The information about my camera is just to show that you don’t need the biggest and best. Just know how to use the one you have.
My camera has 5.2 mega pixel, but I use 3 most of the time because it gives great results, is faster, and takes less memory. Also, it only has a 3 x optical zoom and 7x digital zoom. I never use the digital zoom because making pictures larger works better on the computer. This is an old camera, but everyone is impressed with the quality pictures it takes … like magic.
Check with the Geeks in several stores and compare prices. Ask what cameras they own. Once you select a camera read all about it in the owner’s manual.
The source links will show most of the cameras out there with prices and help make your digital cameras work better.
