    Thanks for that. We are looking for a starter camera and that sounds like a good price. Have you used it yet? Any reviews?

    :D

  • Brilliant - Thanks for this - just what husband wanted for xmas and I have just rung and reserved one at our local store- Great! ;D
  • Have just managed to reserve this at argos enfield - is this camera also known as the sharp VL-Z100? (which is in the argos cat number 563/1357) this model was given a 'buy it' rating in computer active last month (beating 7 other budget models) and I was seriously close to paying the full price for it so happy days.

    Ok ive got reservations for a couple fo these if people want them

    1 at Kings Heath Store Birmingham

    and 1 reserved at Birmingham Pallasades store.

    email me - music@mrwhitelabel.f2s.com if you want them
  • Well done Sniffer, good spot. I've just got back from picking one up. It's a very nice little gadgety camera.

    While I was in Argos I had a quick go at punching in items from their current catalogue. None of the items I was interested in was full price when I checked. Most digicams/camcorders have at lease £50 off and most other tech godies were lower than the catalogue price.

    Did the pack of mini-DV tapes come packaged with the camcorder or were they seperate? Did you have to ask for them?

    I have one of these reserved and am keen to know what to expect......

    Thanks,

    Rob
    I say what I like, I like what I say!
  • just picked mine up from argos enfield - they had more in stock - the free tapes (5 pack!) come separately (came up on the cashiers screen) and don't forget the £10 voucher - the camera itself is unbelievably small and coooool looking - havnt tried it yet but this was a great spot by sniffer - thanks again
  • Picked mine up today, very happy the pack of 5 tapes were automatically put on the receipt as was the £10 voucher (to be used by feb 14th). Great post - saved me at least £100 as I was intending to budget £250 for one. THANKS!!! ;D
