    £40 for delivery to ireland is a bit of a rip off
    Extra charges are classified below, and the corresponding amounts will be added to your standard carriage charge of £6.95, the only exception to this is Ireland. Orders to Ireland are charged at £40 for up to 5Kg and £1.65 per extra kilo.


    Extra Kilogram : £0.25 extra
    Northern Ireland : £5.00 extra
    Isle of Man : £5.00 extra
    Isles of Scilly : £5.00 extra
    Scottish Islands : £5.00 extra

    O.K for the price, a few things would prevent me buying it.
    1) No optical zoom (Digital zoom is a cod)
    2) 4 AAA batteries
    3) Damn ugly camera

    But it's still an O.K. camera for the money, would be good for a first camera.

    "2048 x 1536 CMOS Sensor with 3.1 Mega Pixels"

    Uses software to get to 5MP...

    It's fine if you just want a camera to take snaps in open daylight but if you're going to be trying to photograph in low-light conditions, highspeed action shots or even need to use a zoom facility this camera is a pile of cack. You get what you pay for. Oh and the £40 delivery to Ireland is outrageous.

    tbh I'd rather 2megapixels through a good quality lens than 5MP through some plasticy peice of crap.
    Or should I say 3MP, as unklerosco pointed out.
