Novatech Digtal Camera

...nobody has said `good spot`...WHY! & the 700 ish cameras have been sold......let`s have some feedback from you guys

I think if you look you`ll find peeps saw a message a short while ago detailing a cheaper camera from them, and this one was mentioned as being superior, so people knew about it, including me.

I knew it was a great bargain, and have been thinking about getting one. Well, seeing as you reminded me, I just this minute bought one from them, paying with my trusty debit card.

Makes a change buying something with cash rather than the well worn credit card! ;)

Thanks for the heads up, I do think this camera is going to be rather good...

Yep, I ordered one on Sunday, just waiting for it to turn up now.....

Cheers for the spot, Tom

Which one is it guys? My lads birthday on Monday so if you get back to me today and O order it from the site, is it likely to arrive by Saturday (In time to wrap up etc) or am I better off going to somewhere like Jessops on the High St and walking out with a slightly dearer but "in my hand" camera. Info greatly appreciated.
Thanks n` all the best...F...

Paul, do we know if the LCD screen is a colour preview screen or just a readout of no. of pics taken?

Here is the Aldi site. http://www.aldi-stores.co.uk/

Hi all, Got the ALDI one for my lad in the end as it came as a complete package, batteries, leads, charger, MGI Photosuite and the 16MB card, power lead etc.
Happy as a bag of happy things so far but...the TFT emits a (admittedly low) "squealing" kind of sound. We have another camera that has a screen but doesn`t make this sound. Now the photos and everything else to do with this camera so far are great and this is more of annoyance, I just wondered if anybody else who has bought one of these has found the same or would I be best advised to exchange it?
Thanks for bearing with me, any assistance greatly appreciated.
All the best...Flyer...
