Just bought it today with that deal. My rounded calculations make it:
Nikon D3100 lens: £469 - £25 = £444 - 8% quidco (£35) = £409 - £40 cashback from Nikon = £369 which im really happy with.
Thanks for your post about Jessops as It ment I got the best deal, could pick it up from bluewater today and have a shop to take it back to if there`s a problem!
EDIT: the quico is before Tax so cashback is showing as £30.22 so total cost of the camera is £374 which is still great.

Hi Folks, newish member here.
I was just wondering if anyone had any experience of buying fron buyacamera.co.uk, I am thinking of buying their Twin Lens Kit package which consists of the Canon EOS 550D with 18-55mm IS Lens plus 55-250mm IS lens. The price comes in at £764.99 plus £6.99 delivery.
Also in terms of using the camera for HD Video, is it essential to invest in one for the faster Memory Cards, I was thinking of the Sandisk Extreme SDHC Up to 20MB/s, Class 6.
Thanks in advance for any help provided.data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Evening all,
I have a very simple question but wasn't sure whether to put it in the photography section or the general cables section.
I've had my D5000 for a good 6 months now but only recently have I needed to display my pics on an HDTV. The manual says I need a 'Type C mini-pin HDMI cable'. Now, I've done some research and as with everything nowadays there are thousands of options and the prices vary hugely, which leaves me a bit confused.
I would really appreciate some advice on the following:
- What is considered to be a good cable?
- Where is it best to purchase from?
- And most importantly, do you need to spend a lot on a cable or will a cheaper one give similar results?
Many thanks.
They are pretty std. It is digital so if the cable fits it is good enough. They are only a few quid so you can't exactly make a big mistake. Ebay/Amazon ?
Thanks Clown.
It sounds like a ridiculous question, it's just that cables can vary so much in price that I wondered if the extra money would give you a significantly better quality cable. I don't want to compromise on quality and will happily spend more, as long as the benefit warrants the cost.
Considering what you've said, I'll get myself one of these:
Neet FLX - Mini HDMI to HDMI Cable - (2m) - 1080p Full HD - v1.3b - Type C (mini 19 pin) to Type A (std 19 pin) - Professional HDMI Lead
Yes that looks ideal. There is zero benefit in spending more on one though comet/currys sales people will try to convince you otherwise.

Just last evening I saw one in Tesco for same cost too
Im unconvinced that spending more gets you anything special
Perhaps long runs to a projector ect where audio may suffer a bit otherwise ..No get a bog standard one and enjoy..data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
PayPal Fee Calculator by Ryan Olbe
May be handy for all you buyers and sellers when using PP so you can calculate fees and if paid by GIFT, then split the 'fees' 50/50 and both parties are quids-in.Fees are 2.9% - 3.9% 20p/30¢.
...and Gift/PPG is free except for international money transfers data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Gift also offers zero buying/selling protection so take care.
