[ PRICE DROPS — the good news ]
OLYMPUS Australia has dropped the recommended retail price on the Olympus C7070 to $999. At the same time the price of the SONY DSC-V3 has dropped a massive $400 to now be the same as the CANON G6 – $1099. We have revised our star rating for the SONY DSC-V3 to 4.5 as it now represents excellent value for money. These are the three best viewfinder cameras in the shops at the moment and any customer can indulge in brand name prejudice confident that whatever camera is chosen it will not be the wrong one.
And as if that were not enough C R Kennedy, the Australian distributor of PENTAX cameras, has broken the $1000 barrier for digital single lens reflex cameras. The PENTAX *istDL with Sigma 18~50 lens is being advertised by Ted's for a few cents under $1000.
