This: http://accessories.euro.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=uk&l=en&s=dhs&cs=ukdhs1&sku=A1706757&dgc=SS&cid=5186&lid=121454&acd=23975883824506252 ....is a camera without a lense, no? GBP520 + shipping. http://accessories.euro.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=es&l=es&cs=esdhs1&sku=A2292007 .... whereas this is the same thing, but with a noddy lense but almost double the price? -- Paul.

The camera itself (called the body) require a lens in order to work. But this is their beauty, as you can buy as many or as few lenses as you can afford, and they range from a few quid up to 10k and beyond. -- Kev

Yes. You want a 'package' which includes camera + lens. Typically the retailer will do a bundle which also includes a memory card, and perhaps a bag for it all too. This is what I bought, from Bristol Cameras, last year. -- Champ We declare that the splendour of the world has been enriched by a new beauty: the beauty of speed.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember ogden <ogden(a)pre.org> saying something like: >There you go, now get down the shops, you know all you need to know. Irta as 'get down the slopes', which made it a rather fitting skiing analogy. |
