Blow-out deal on new digi cameras

“Saw this on http://www.slickdeals.net - take a look there for the deal details. I just bought a Canon SD400 for $274 shipped, with a free 256MB memory card. Normally its $399 for the camera, plus shipping, plus $34.99 for the memory card. The SD400 is a 5 MP camera, and feather light. Perfect for backpacking.

Thought I would pass this along for those that are looking to upgrade, or get their first digi camera. I've been looking around for 6 months for the perfect deal, and this was it.”

“p.s. - the system didn't take off the charge for the memory card, so I had to call customer service and they corrected it.”

“I got my Canon S70 at www.buydig.com for $388. The price goes up and down daily.”

“Snowy - how do you like the S70? I'm thinking about getting a smaller camera for backpacking and that's one I noticed. I'm also looking at the Fujipix F810. I want a small digi that will let me easily use aperture priority and EV compensation without messing around with menus.”

“The S70 is a little lighter. They made a few changes that I have to get used to. They moved buttons around. Both the S45 and S50 had the same setup, and so I still hit the same buttons to zoom, etc. The S70 has a wide angle lens, so I have to remember to zoom in a little for the snowboarding photos. The pictures are pretty nice and I'm happy with it.”
