Currys.co.uk is currently showing the latest 7 Megapixel Canon Powershot A620 in stock for £224.57 including delivery, which is a fair price (same as Amazon). There is a code for 5% off, which makes it £213.34. Currys seem to "run out of stock" often, so i don't know how long it will be on the web site (see earlier threads on the Canon EOS 350D at Currys).

The Canon UK details for the camera are here



However, if you have the Egg Money card, and use the link from the Egg Money page to Currys website, you will get a further 12% off as cashback, making the price £187.74. This is a good price for the latest Canon Powershot, which gets excellent reviews (example here at https://www.dcresource.com)

For a refreshing change, a camera posted here at a good price that is actually worth having!!! Far too many people get carried away with pure megapixels and forget all the other important stuff.

He's often mentioned, but Steve at Steve's Digicams is a guru of all things camera-related. He absolutely adores this camera - here's the closing conclusions:

"Bottom line - Canon has struck gold with this winning combination of high-quality and low price. The A620 offers users outstanding image quality with robust performance, all in a stylish and very durable package. With its wealth of exposure modes, your entire family will love using it, and with 7-megapixels of resolution you can create endless 13x19-inch prints (just be sure you have lots of ink handy.) With an MSRP of around $399, the Canon PowerShot A620 offers an excellent value and is definitely one our pics for 2005. If you love this camera as much as we do, but don't need the 7.1-megapixels of resolution, check out its 5-megapixel twin brother, the PowerShot A610. It is identical in features with a price tag of about $100 less."

If you're after a new camera this Christmas, you would have to look VERY hard to find a better one than this at such a competitive price.
