It's a sad fact , but no-one should do their own proof reading - you always read what you think you said and not what you actually said .

it was square / cubed shaped and had a wee lever at the bottom of the front IIRC that was moved slightly to one side to trigger the shutter
it was originally my Mother's and I used it in 1958
Here you are link

It's the people in N Ireland who are getting the real bargains from B&H - for Ireland shipping is cheaper and there are NO items for VAT or Duties so the final total for the K-x is $608.25 !!!!! Truly a bargain .

I've found them very reasonable re price - BUT they are in the USA and their small stuff is not as competitive .

I'd hate to be presented with the bill for VAT etc here AND also get a bill for the delivery company having to extract the money from me .
[edit] OH - just looked at what B&H say for England - they are quoting [ remember it's for K-x ] $743.81 including taxes etc
That's approximately £464.89 hhhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm[/edit]
what were SRS asking ?
for that wee difference I'd go to SRS too

Would be interesting to check the price for the same article in all the countries of the UK.
I'll admit I paid a good deal less for mine and had rather more in the way of 'extras' as well - Lowepro bag , 8 GB card , and extra set of batteries and a battery charger , and a lens cleaning kit !

OK - so input my country - first surprise - it doesn't give UK so I found Scotland was listed .
It then asked about shipping - so I opted for 5 days [ cheapest just over $60 I believe ] so it gave me a total price of $612.55 [ £382.44]- oh - hang on - said that VAT and duties were unobtainable
VAT goes up to 17.5% on Jan 1 - so if you add that in you are paying about £449.36

In that case - I hate to say it - but speaking as a woman - the TV comes first
You have got a decent working camera - yes ?
The 14 ins portable is probably a bit small for the room even though it works .
Get her the TV - you know it makes sense
