The review for the Fuji Z1 is here http://www.megapixel.net/html/reviews.php

I compared it to their review of the Canon SD300 because it is close to the SD400. I read a bunch of reviews for the SD400 on other sites. Also in the original link I posted the price of the SD400 is $188. So the Fuji Z1 is $62 more.

Yup sd400=2" sd450=2.5" and youre right maybe not worth 100$

and i dont have my camera with me right now.. but i will post some pics in like a couple of dyas if you wish.
I really like the canon. I like the quickness of the camera i do like the viewfinder i day light or low battery situations and i dont like Fuji's after sales service.

not saying giftonics is a scammer, but if the price is too good to be true, then it probably is. they have 0 reviews on www.resellerratings.com. when buying expensive electronics on the internet, merchant research is almost as important as product research. personally, i'd let dell or amazon or etronics etc earn an extra 50$ from me for peace of mind.

i just did a simple whois and the domain looks fishy. domain registered in VA, business located in CA. domain registered less than a month ago.

damn...now you have me all worried about it. Maybe I will get the camera and a 1GB SD card thru dell with that $50 off coupon code.

Thanks for looking out.

if you're willing to risk it, you can use a one-time use credit card number. and make sure the credit card has protection in case the merchant doesn't accept returns. i've just read a lot of stories on resellerratings and pricegrabber to make me suspicious of everything. maybe i'm just paranoid.
