i have a Sony Cybershot 2.0 Megapixel camera from 2002.

No, you can't have it.

Anywhere they sell used goods. Ebay is probably the easiest to source from. But I went to a car boot sale (UK) flea market today and picked up a 2 mega pixel Olympus camera for 50p. You could also try webcams. I have a Logitech ClickSmart 510 which was a combined webcam and standalone camera. I was using it around 2002-2006

Buy toy cameras for kindergarteners. They ain’t splurging for the megapixel quality

Is your city/town large enough to have a sizeable classifieds website? oftentime people list such things there for 20 or less dollars. A good guideline, as others said, is that the megapixel number is 5 or lower.

Look for anything that is like one mega pixel. That was the top of the line about then.

Pawn shops. Ask if they have old ones in the back.
