    £189 HERE... I don't know what they are like though... Google the item number and it comes up with quite a few cheaper than your best price... Get the memory card from play.. Very cheap..

    4gb memory card from play is £7.99 from play including delivery...

    I've got the TZ 2 and it's a fantastic camera - bought it a few months ago for £99. I really did want a TZ3, but that was £50 more and I could have waited for the Z5, but knew that it wouldn't be cheap. I'd consider the Z2 or Z3 if you can get a cheap deal as you'l hardly notice the diffrence in the megapixel. The other diffrence is size of screen - the 3 and 5 have a larger screen, but otherwise they all have the same features. If you by a memory card, get a SDHC one - I got a Sandisk extream 3 for about £18 from Picstop.

    Not sure about Best Priced Brands - no contact details and I think I heard they were not UK based. I bought my TZ5 for 199.99 plus P&P from 7dayshop.com - don't forget Quidco. These are Jersey based and have always been good for me. Play.com best for SHDC cards (do make sure you get SDHC). Oh, and also got a replacement battery from 7dayshop - a cheap generic alternative to Panasonic branded

    I got this camera last week for £190 inc del from Dixons. Dixons do a price beater thing and a company called Egears which no one knows much about had it at the cheapest price, Dixons then go online and check the deal out themselves then say ney or yey, job done and have to say it was good service from Dixons. Also agree about the sdhc play as well ordered one last week.

    Thanks for all the help, i have heard nothing but bad things about bestpricedbrands.co.uk, all reviews i have seen are bad. I also found it for the same price at digitalfirst.co.uk but they have gone into administration apparently. I found egears.co.uk aswell but didnt really look like a place i wanted to buy from.

    Do Dixons price match in store? So i can pick it up from there store?

    And i have just ordered my SD Card from play, thankyou.

    Although this really shouldn't be in Grabbit, I find this post useful as I have been eyeing on this camera for my upcoming holiday. Still a few month to go so hopefully will be closer to £150 mark then.....jetski's recommendation is probably the best as nothing beats getting the camera on the day you part your money.

    Dixons/Currys just check the website in front of you and let you know if they can do it. As long as they think it's a proper site (ie, can see registered address etc) they lower the price for you. Although I think the discount can't be more than certain percentage.

    Absolutely agree with Play.com's SD, especially jeglet's advise that you should get a SDHC card. Much faster with hi-res pics and video clip recordings.

    As usual, always use quidco!
