It’s not the size that matters; it’s how you use it. Truer words were never spoken and while that should hold good in the real world when it comes to technology size is relevant only in terms of portability. The smaller the device the easier it is to carry but features like quality of the design and output of whatever media are also immensely important. For instance a Japanese camera maker named Exemode has designed and developed the SQ28m which is a miniature digital camera that captures stills and videos and can be hooked up to a keychain. It’s so small that it weighs in at just 21g and has a dimension of 53×23×19mm and has a 1/2.7-inch 1.95MP CMOS sensor.

This tiny camera is equipped with a microSD card slot so you can expand the 64MB of internal memory but no more than 2GB. The SQ28m is capable of shooting images in a 1,280×1,200 resolution and video as Motion JPEG or AVI in 320×240 resolution at 8fp which is not bad at all for a tiny camera like this. USB 1.1 allows it to interface with your PC for data transfer. In two colors, red and blue the SQ28m is priced at about $70 which doesn’t seem too bad.
