So, I bought my Canon A650 in February for a hair under $300, which was a great deal. I saw the prices dip towards $270 or so, but now they are in the realm of $370-$400? I don’t get it. I know that Canon introduces new stuff around August/September, but that is ridiculous. You can almost get a Digital Rebel for that price. Or a G9, which is basically an A650 with a hot shoe, native raw, and no AA batteries or moving screen.
I’m glad that I’ll have this awesome camera on the honeymoon. Also glad that I used my Amex points to buy the Canon teleconverter for it. Now if I could just find the wide converter for cheap…
