Woohoo just got confirmation that both the Camera and the Memory shipped today! I was just emailing them this morning cuz the order disappeared from my order history and they asked me if i'd like to keep the order still so I said ok. Now I check my email and they both show up as delivered...finally!

 

[Tonix]

Yay for us that waited this deal out!

 

[alchemize]

Got the email too! Now I don't have to buy an extra flash card yet...and I can share the wealth!

 

[bpctech]

i also got the email. not tracking yet, but soon hopefully!

 

[bpctech]

awesome I have tracking info!

It's within 200 miles too, so it should arrive by the weekend.

Mine was shipped 2nd day air from CT today.

However, Carmen found better digicam deals @Target here.

yeah the C-3020 for $225 is a fantastic deal. That is the camera I really wanted, but it was a bit out of my price range and the A40 is a fantastic value. However it's a definite YMMV.

Well it's not out of your price range anymore Go to Target and see if you can find one. Nows the best time as they just dropped today and most stores don't even have them on display anymore. Ask them to check under the counter or in the back. If you find one, take that Canon back.

Well sometimes you can go a little crazy Got my officemax package today. Then Dell shipped before I could cancel. So I will have 3 camera's come 10-18!! Selling one to the guy next to me at work...anyone want to buy an A40 for $214? I'll probably just return it to Dell and be out a few bucks for shipping...or try and reject the package if I catch the UPS guy.

Then there is the C-3020...I'm going to call my Target and see if they have it in stock or not for giggles. Not crossing my fingers but that is a nice camera!

Just received my A40 and 64M card, those use to be backordered for more than a week.

8 days later than if they were instock, not bad.

 

[UF Jspec]

Still OOS for me :-(

 

[bpctech]

just opened mine up and been playing with it for an hour or 2. This is my first digital camera, and I am incredibely impressed. The quality is fantastic, and it is really easy to use. Thanks for this deal!!

damn, can't believe i missed this deal. I was looking for this camera last week too. Would someone please tell me where is the camera made/manufactured? thanks.

Mine's made in Malaysia. It's worked well for the last two months, except that for a period of about one week, the aperature setting in manual mode wouldn't switch from large to small. Then it just started working again before I called Canon tech support.

Also, just yesterday, I had the misfortune of dropping it out of my camera bag from about 4ft off the floor at a restuarant. :disgust: Doh! Took a look at the camera and everything looks fine. The body and LCD didn't even get scratched.

Is there a link to this camera with 64MB/128MB card for $200. I donot see anywhere offering 64MB/128MB card. Can anyone post a link? I am looking for this camera.

Thanks

 

[Pothead]

I love how people just read the first few posts...

 

[br200000]

Hi Golden

I guess - I said, When I clicked those posted links - Office Max gave me error - saying - sorry for inconvinience - that product is no longer available. And my thoughts are that someone knows another link where that offer is accessible.

And I am guessinng that you are replying me - saying - There are no such links like that.

I should have posted my question more fairly. Will do next time.

Thanks

Don't completely give up hope, people. I got mine today, after it had been back ordered since 10/6.

Gotta take back my OD A40 now.


Feed my addiction...

How long have you guys had to wait on backorder?

 

[UF Jspec]

I got my camera and memory card yesterday. For a while I though it would never come.

I ordered it on Sunday, October 6th and received it on Friday, October 18th.

 

[ynotravid]

Not bad. I just went with my friend to OfficeMax B&M last week cuz it wasn't available online and they told him it was on backorder. So I was just wondering how long he was going to have to wait till it comes in.

Also, the guy who put the order in for us just manually adjusted the price to $199 so we could have grabbed about $50 of flash for free by using the coupon but we decided that that would be dishonest.

Anyone else have dead pixel? I have one dead pixel that can be seen in dark conditions. Also the beeping sound of the camera is inconsistent, sometimes extremely high, sounds like the "speaker" is bad. Otherwise this camera is awesome.
