buy camera from amazon?

[Harold Schnabel]

Barbara:

I like to buy cameras from a camera store. Also check to see if it is not a gray market item & that it has a USA warranty.
I also agree with someone who suggested B & H Camera. I've dealt with them & they are very good, also try Adorama.

[Barbara Brundage]

Thanks, Harold.

Jodi,

I've used an S602 and liked it very much. I have the 6900Zoom which is
it's predecessor and have always been satisfied with it. The S602 focuses
much more quickly and it also uses AA batteries and not the propietary cell
that is in the 6900. Got mine from B&H 2 years ago. I'm sure you'll like
it.

Speaking of the differences between the 10D and the Rebel. Does either or
both have a cable release? Reading the lit on the Rebel seems to indicate
there is an extra-cost remote, but I don't see any reference to a cable
release.

Dick,

I have a 10D and as far as I know, there's no such thing as a cable release. There's an inexpensive
(in Canon's terms) remote control, and there's also the infra-red remote control or the
intervalometer, much more expensive.

Dick, I don't see a cable release capability on my 10D. My EOS Elan 35 mm
film camera didn't have one either; appears that Canon has retired that
feature in exchange for sales of various wired and wireless remotes...

Hi, Ray - You beat me to it!

Dick, thanks for the info. I just looked in B & H today and they don't appear to have it anymore. I understand it's a little outdated but that wouldn't bother me so much if I got it at a really great price ( cheap ) I will keep my eyes open. Thanks.

Anyone notice we don't have that annoying pre-edit type message displays anymore ?

[Chuck Snyder]

Jodi, check [url]www.price.com[/url]. There are 8 vendors listed that supposedly have
Fuji S602 in stock. But caveat emptor applies....

Hey thanks Chuck ! what to do what to do what to do

[Ray]

Pure chance! I was going to have diner when I saw this message :)

JODI,
Yes, I see. We're back to our simple "Put it on then Think it over" method of posting. HooRayyyy!

Let me jump in here. I sold something through Half and I NEVER GOT PAID. I
brought it to the attention several times and all I got was lip service. I
suggest that you avoid Half at all costs. To see what I mean try contacting
them by phone. It is next to impossible to get someone who gives a rats
bottom and then ( not to repeat my self ) all you get is excuses, delays,
and worthless promises.

Don't do business with Half.

> Barb...another good place to buy from is Half.com...It's Ebay's "little

brother" but at half.com the prices are set, no bidding, and a lot of the
people selling are actual dealers. ALL sellers ar rated by the buyers and
how many items they've sold are listed, so if you find a seller that has
sold 5,467 items and has a 99.5% approval rating you can be sure that your
transaction is "safe". Also you can pay through their paypal service and
have a return/credit policy inforced. I have bought almost all of my books
and a lot of supplies from them. Alkit photo from NY is a big seller on
there...I found my Kodak 8500 printer from them at a very good price and
service was great...you might want to check out their pricing.

Grant and Dick - you are both wrong. The best whiskey, the only real whiskey, is Irish.

Don't know what all this has to do with Amazon...anyway...
Kentucky's whisky keeps all our Arts active, so does the tobacco company. Seems like a sly way to get approval from the cultural side.
I'm a white wine person myself.

Andrew - I've had a nodding acquaintance with Murphy's and Bushmill's.
And, they are very good. No doubt about it.

Andrew, you are absolutely right there is no whikey like Irish. All the others are whisky, but can be drunk as well. ;-)

Unfortunately I don't drink alcohol any more.
I have to keep my attention to Elements.

Such language from the mouth of a lad with a good Scottish name.

Grant - Give me single malt or give me death!

Isn't there a rule against posting obscenities? :) Just kidding Andrew.

Malt!

Ok that wasn't funny at all. Just plain dumb. But I'm with you on the single malt thing Grant. Pure pleasure!
