    I'm a Bitter jealous person who did not get an A7 - new catelogue is out and it's reduced to £165 - you all still got a very good deal!

    I remain bitter and twisted

    I have just been having a look at the new things on the website, and they dont have that Accessory Kit (570/5544) any more.
    But instead have this one Samsung DSC Camera Accessory Kit (570/0020) which is £49.99.
    It looks pretty much the same but is £10 more than the first one was, although with this one you are getting a Samsung brand charger and four 2300 mAh AA batteries.

    Just thought id post incase anyone was looking for a charger and case.
    :cool:

    My brother went to Argos today and viewed the A6, he was hoping for an A7 to come down, but it was an A6, it was the last one in stock.
    Anyway when the woman opened the box there was a leather Samsung pouch for the camera. Do the A6's come with a leather case?
    That cant be right?
    The A7's dont come with a case, and they are meant to be over £300!

    I never got a case with my A6, I am very happy with the camera tho, it's excellent.

    The A7 comes with 2 years cover anyway...
    How much was the insurance?, if cheap its probably worth it as Argos do the exchange and you might get an upgrade. ;)
    In 3 years time how many pixies will be standard?
    Or will you mobile Broadband an image from the camera to th PC from anywhere.
