RE: Pentax optio s55 £150 @ Booots £50 cheaper than jessops

thanks for sharing that.
Its just everyone always talk about canon etc, and its easy to get confused. seems ok for that price.

btw. It doesnt have a analogue viewer thing, but do people really use that when they have a TFT screen.

Pentax optio s55 £150 @ Booots £50 cheaper than jessops

Hi there The boots store is selling these Pentax optio s55 for £150 as a special week offer. The camera is £200 at jessops.

The camera is 5M pixels and 3x optical zoom.
There are loads of review on this camera, just google for "pentax optio s55"

I am also thinking of this buying this camera, what do you think?

btw I heard the booots warranty is gr8 as they replace items rather than repair.

RE: Cello DIV-X DVD Player @ Sainsburys - only £34.99

Not a bad player, i like the digest thing it does just like the cyberhome 400 and the Pacific DVD-1002, (it displays small thumbs which you can select with number buttons usefull for dvds that have chapters but no menus or just text menus). menus are same as whsmiths skyworth but this has loads of menus for audio and picture settings.

Plus pressing goto brings up a small menu that shows what bit rate is of the video (tried on vcd and dvd only) also plays wma. in the manual it says that it has 2 headphone inputs for karoke, but there is nothing on the unit.

I really dont work for sainsburys, now lets hope it lasts me longer than 9 months.

RE: Sainsburys DIVX DVD players, £34.99, £39.99

RE: aldi dvd recorder £120 out Dec 7th

what i fail to understand is whats wrong with the liteon one from argos especialy when it does both + and - disks, and on top of that it has 2 scart sockets and its just the same price as this. for a normal person the liteon is good machine. just suggesting again

RE: aldi dvd recorder £120 out Dec 7th

Have you seen the thread about the Liteon dvd recorder its a dual format plus you have dv link if you have a digital camera plus a bit more info on the net, and you get 10 pund voucher.

just thought...

RE: Good recorder, but some caveats...

Did anyone buy it yet? I got it and its not bad, but i am just wondering... should i stick with it or just get a normal dvd player, i kinda like complicated things and remote full of buttons. (like normal video or dvd player)

RE: Cheap Progressive Scan / Component DVD Player - £29.99

nop, thats the downside of it, but it is very simier to Avayon DXP-1000 so search for that see what happens. I have returnd it back now, I did like it and I think there should be more divx type players out now. especialy on argos and extra.

RE: Cheap Progressive Scan / Component DVD Player - £29.99

Tried it.
Good divx playback, but I dont like the fast forward speed only goes to 8x 16x on divx, on divx and raw mpegs it doesnt allow zoom, plus fast forward on vcd is not good its jerky. menus look like same as pacific from asda or cyberhome.
there is no sign of goodmans on the background screen it just says divx.
search for Goodmans GDVD161DIVX 5.1 DVD Player on argos site.
