Beware When Shopping For Camera’s Online
I recently lost my beloved Canon Powershot SD300
I found out that the Nikon D80 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera Kit with 18-135mm AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens
I would have to chose the Nikon D80 over the Canon XTi because of 3 reasons:
1. The Canon doesn’t fit well in my hands. If my hands were slightly smaller like my wife’s it would’ve fit well, but it just feels like its going to slip out.
2. The battery life on the Canon is about half as long as the Nikon. Plus the battery life indicator shows full, half and quarter as opposed to the somewhat more accurate meter on the Nikon.
3. No spot metering. [I'd probably never use it anyway]
Anyway, after doing all this research I got excited and decided I’d buy one. I found a few sites that offered phenomenal deals on both cameras. It seemed like I could get either kit for roughly $800 at sites like ExpressCameras.com. It sounded too good to be true. I did some research and I found its a scam. According to several review sites, customers were charged extra for batteries, straps, lens covers,etc which normally come standard. Not only that but there was heavy pressure to upsell onto much more expensive equipment. Also, quite a few people got wrong kits and had to dispute it through their credit card companies. That didn’t really sound like something I’d enjoy going through to save a few bucks.
Anyway it put me off buying the damn camera so instead I just bought the Canon Powershot SD450 Camera
