I just bought a Sony DSC T7 Digital camera on E-bay for 375 Euros(incl. delivery and postage)-Its a 5Mpixel with x3 optical zoom, and is very good for indoor stuff-it also has a huge viewfinder, which is good for video as well. A seller called bestsellerhk2002 is worth having a look at on e-bay, I found him to be quick and v. reliable...daithi
I got an Canon Ixus 50 with a 512mb card for €370ish inc delivery from www.technikdirect.de If you are vat registered give them your vat details and they will deduct the vat from the bill ....you don't have to pay it and then claim it back
