You faggot. Jokes.

I got a price match for the blue one (no more greys) at Future Shop at Metrotown. As long as any staples have one at their store, regardless of color, then yes, they can honor the price.

Just make sure to be courteous when talking to the manager/employee. Future shop is loosing 50% of the camera's value just from the price match alone, so make sure you don't sound like a bitch.

Did they call a staples to check for Stock?

yup they have to call them to confirm the price

AFAIK, walmart also does price matching as well

Thanks. I don't really need a point and shoot but I'm quite tempted to pick one up just because of the price!

Camera's half-decent, but nothing special. Doesn't have wide angle. *sigh*

It has 'Widescreen Mode" lol.

Went to Future Shop on Scott Road and asked them to price match Staples.

They wouldn't despite the North Van staples having one in stock... complete asses. So then I went to Bestbuy, and sawt hey had them for sale for $99. Finally got the bitches at futureshop to price match.

Took so much effort. They were not pleased.

^why didn't you just buy it at bb?

Pricematch + 10% off the difference.

So bestbuy dropped the price to $99?

Yeah, but not reflected on their website...

Yeah. New prices were just printed today.

ahh ok thx. i'll check it out.

No offense dood, but you really have no idea what you're talking about do you. If you think Widescreen and Wide angle are the same, boy have Canon's marketing department done their homework. :)

This thing does NOT have wide angle. They use a regular lens, change the aspect ratio to 16:9 "Widescreen" (which is for 1 resolution btw, and it can't even do widescreen or HD video), and ppl like you go running to the stores to clear out Canon's old inventory for them. ;) The world needs more people like you :lol

Bottom line, the SD1200 is a standard 10MP camera. There's nothing special at all about the specs, other than maybe the D!GIC4 chip, which is found in all the current generation cameras anyways. If you bought a camera in the last 2 years, chances are this camera is a DOWNGRADE compared to what you have.

No thanks, not for me. I'm gonna buy the wide angle camera they put on the rack after all these SD1200s are gone. :p

Technically, the Fuji AV150 is a better camera for the same price :p

But of course you`ve got to go for canon over fuji... it`s all about the names these days...

How'd it go?

I bought it online from the bestbuy site.

uh a 35mm lens is considered a wide angle
