I just bought the Panasonic waterproof camera so I'm hoping that Canon isn't the THAT much better...is it?

Anyone have any experience with the 55-200mm VR? B&H has it on sale for 150. seems like a pretty good deal. I'll probably pick one up
I've actually tested one extensively. Anything in specific you want to know about it?Originally posted by dirtsniffer

Here are some points:
- Huge bang for the buck, image quality is way beyond it's (low) price range
- Standard kit lens build quality, nothing special
- Micro AF motor rather than a true SWM ring motor
- The lens is slow, being f4-5.6
- Front element does not rotate like some other cheap kit zooms, so it's polarizer friendly
- You cannot manually override the AF on the fly
For $150 you can't go wrong, that's for sure, all things considered. Memory express has it on for $204 if you prefer local. Don't expect miracles and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with it.
Just make sure it's the VR version. The Non-VR one is quite a bit worse optically.

Let me know if you guys come across any good deals on tripods with video fluid heads!
Also in the market for a slider for video. Might just build one myself though.
I've been checking some sites but I don't want to miss out on a good deal if one ever comes up!
headsup, they didn't actually come to deliver it. it was forwarded to UPS. the dates on the delivery appointment don't mean anything. hope they didn't waste your time.Originally posted by benyl

[Adorama] GF3+2 lens for $499US
the lens in the package aren't very tempting though. I suppose you can sell these two for most of the package price? haha
did anyone miss out on the Canon sd4000is from Sears, but is still interested? I ordered and received one (red), but really have no use for it. I opened the box, looked at the camera, and put it back. at cost $126 before it goes to kijiji
heloc that shit
It's a decent camera with an F2.0 lens and digic 4. Takes decent photos for a point and shoot.Originally posted by lint

Mine was delivered on the day I selected. I have a concierge in my building (living in a condo while my house is built) and he took delivery.Originally posted by dragonone

it's a good deal, but still not needed. my old 870is still works and I never use that one either. I pretty much only use my phone camera so I'd rather put the money into an olloclipOriginally posted by benyl

GF2 w/lens was on for $349 yesterday on newegg.ca...all sold out now. Not quite as good as the $289 from before, but it might be one worth watching if anyone really wants that.
when was that posted? it's on for 349 at SIG and i think aden has it for a bit more with a 2nd battery. apparently ebay batteries won't show capacity properly?
broadwaycamera still has it for 359 for a while, and 399 with pancake. these prices are here to stay.
I got an e-mail notification telling me the price was $349 yesterday. For black Friday deals it was on for $289.Originally posted by dragonone

I didn't know that it is around that same price at lots of places though. I'd buy one at $289 but probably not for any more than that.
Shoppers Drug Mart have the "white top" Pre-Charge Rechargeable Duracell for sale at $9.99 (vs $20.99).
The "white top" battery is rebranded Eneloop, 2000mAh, 1.2v, Made In Japan.
