    welcome to hardwareforums locked!

    Yes it is possible to buy converters for 2.5" drives (laptop hard drives), i would suggest a USB enclosure (so you can use your 50GB for moving files around after you have copied your pictures off!).

    Hard Drives - Notebook, Hard Drives - Internal, Hard Drives - External, Flash & USB Memory, Drive Enclosures, Card Readers, MicroDirect.

    I would suggest the cheapest one on that page, they all do the same thing
