Looking Glass Web Specials
May, 2008

If you've been shopping for a camera, you've probably figured out by now that the advertised cost of the camera is only part of what you're likely to end up spending. And some stores will lure you in with an attractive price on the camera, only to sock it to you on the required accessories.

That's not how it works at Looking Glass, and this month, with so many people buying gifts, we wanted to make it more simple and straight forward than ever. So we’'ve come up with some bundles, so that you know exactly what you’'ll need to get, and how much it will cost. These packages are designed to be complete - just ad tax (sorry - not our idea!) and you're ready for Mothers Day, Graduation, Father’'s Day or your summer vacation.

Canon SD1000 Digital Elph Complete PackageCanon Powershot SD1000
This is the Classic Canon pocket camera with 7 mepapixels, metal body, a case, a 1 GIG SD Card that holds hundreds of pictures, a 3 year extended warranty, and 20 free prints from our web site or kiosk.

Normally this would cost you $277. Our special package price is just $249 plus tax so you save $27 dollars.

This deal is available on the popular Silver version only.

 

 

The Canon PowerShot A720 IS
Another great camera from Canon, the Canon PowerShot A720IS features Image Stabilization, a large 3 inch LCD and a 6x zoom lens. While not as compact (or sexy) as the Elph, the A720 has the best price performance in its class and rivals the features of cameras costing twice as much.  We don't think there is a better camera for the money. And it runs on AA batteries.

And, We are offering the same Complete Package deal as the Elph. That is you get a Mack 3 year warranty, 1 gig SD card, Lowepro case and free prints all for just $249. And the legendary Looking Glass customer service for no extra charge.

Double Savings on Nikon P50Coolpix P50
The P50 has been very popular for its solid ergonomics, wide angle 28mm equivalent lens, and electronic Vibration Reduction. We sold a dozens of them at $229, and now we offer the P50 complete with a nice case, 2 year extended warranty (for a total of three years coverage), 1 GIG SD card, and 20 free prints for just $199 after $30 Nikon instant savings and $30 Looking Glass savings.

 

 

 

Nikon S550
The S550 has incredible features like 10 megapixel sensor, face detection so smart it even can detect smiles and blinks, so you get the shot you want. It’'s got a 5x zoom lens with optical Vibration Reduction for sharp shots, and it’'s still skinny enough to fit in your pocket.

One again, we offer the complete savings package which includes the camera, the case, the 3 year warranty protection, a 1 gig SD card and 20 free prints for just $279 after $30 Nikon instant savings and $30 Looking Glass savings.
