The QV-10 was the first consumer digital camera, and introduced features still found on cameras today. Photos were captured by a 1/5 CCD, which produced photos at a gigantic resolution of 320 x 240. The QV-10 had no memory card, instead saving photos (which Casio called 'pages') to its 16Mbit (2MB) of built-in memory.
Nothing can grow in a true desert â but many cacti do grow in very dry areas which might be known as deserts. The giant saguaro grows in the Sonoran Desert. This is the second largest desert in North America covering parts of California and Arizona and stretching over the border to Mexico.
Widely spread throughout the southern regions of the Sonoran Desert, generally below 3,000 feet, the brittlebush is a short shrub with gray-white leaves that grows between 3 and 5 feet tall, and has showy clusters of small yellow flowers, similar in appearance to sunflowers or daisies.he Sonoran Desert is considered lush compared to other deserts of the world. The defining characteristic that makes this desert lush is the greater than 10 inches per year of rainfall some areas receive. The Sonoran Desert has two rainy seasons, or bimodal rainfall.
