Yeah there are some fantastic deals on at the minute.

As always with Sigma lenses the reviews on that one are mixed. Some say it's a nice lens, even better for the price, others say it's dogshit but an ok beginners lens, once again due to the price.

Sigma's quality controls seem to suck. Thankfully my 70-300 is good.

That is a good price on the 450 :o

Think I will save my pennies and go for a 70-300 instead of getting that £50 jobbie though, but it does seem a good deal!

Jesop's have some deals on as they are shutting alot of their stores, like the one in stockport reduced stock upto 50% before it shut.

I think they are only keeping some of the larger stores open from now on.

Fuck ME. That 450 is cheap as chips.

There's now a £60 cashback deal on the 40D too, thanks Canon, 3 weeks after I buy mine they put another cashback offer on. Sods law.

Blatently obvious answers FTW. :pmsl:

Would have got it at £550 with the cashback. Allthough someones just got one from Jessops for £499, fuck knows how.

Because they don't look about 12, and therefore Jessops rip you off because they think it's daddy's money? :pmsl:

I didn't get mine from Jessops, but yeah, you could have a point, as much as I wish you didn't. Cunt.

Still not found out how he paid £499, unless it's a second hand body, or a refurbished one. Not seen them that cheap anywhere, even the import ones on the net are still like £560 ish, cheapest i've seen of the imports being £539.
