  • "available for home delivery."

    • Not anymore… I might have got the last one, or perhaps an email will come tomorrow with some sad news …

      • sigh, i was still thinking buy it or not since I dont need a camera atm…

        • Look at how much you will save? A true ozb'er would snap it up :-)

  • Actually, not that great a camera, my Canon IXUS 220HS has better picture & video quality…, raw samples of these were no biggie, no wonder its on clearance, but why did it cost 3x more than mine in the first place, zoom…? lol O.o

    This price is what its worth IMHO…

    • I am noob to camera, but are you sure about that?

    • not that great a camera

      Your timing is terrible (after I've ordered) :(

      This price is what its worth IMHO…

      Oh well in that case, now I don't feel so bad :D

      TBH, I can stand a little drop in image quality (often happens with large zoom lens anyway) in exchanged for the other features; external flash, viewfinder, tiltable screen, (possibly) lens filters can be added, and of course, the large zoom.

      Poor image quality is only visible when you have something better to compare it too ;)

      Also, does anybody know if the 'free bluetooth headset for orders over $150' was meant to show in the cart, or will it just magically appear when/if the order arrives?

      They have exactly the same sensor, so you must be holding it wrong :)

      Why does it sell for more?
      - you can actually hold it properly
      - 35x zoom vs 5x zoom
      - fully articulating LCD
      - much higher battery life

      Back in 2011 when ILCs were still relatively new and expensive, this was probably worth its price.

      • They have exactly the same sensor, so you must be holding it wrong :)

        Yup, they have the same sensor, but they have different image processors, the SX40 has a DIGIC 5 and mine has a DIGIC 4, my raw images and 1080p video clips are noticeably clearer, and it cost me $189(pricematched $240~) 2 years ago, this still costs a ridiculous $550-600+ at most places…, get a SLR I say !

        • But this is NOT $550-$600, and if you can find a decent SLR with comparable zoom to what this provides for $222.75, I'm sure you'd have the highest voted post ever. lol

        • if you can find a decent SLR with comparable zoom…

          Please tell me ur on drugs… lol

          I was referring to every other place that currently sells this @ nearly $600…, as DSE will not have more than 10 of these, what does this have to do with votes ?, all of this is just my opinion… lol

  • Sold out?
