It cant get better than this. The deal is good. Make sure u buy a good pair of batteries like the sanyo eneloops. They last longer than other rechargeable AA batteries. And also a 2hour quick charger if u feel u require it.

For how much are u getting it on tradus? with what free accessories?

Buy it from Ebay, the seller is a power seller and has 99.6% positive feedback. Click the below link and use the promo code EBAYCAM100 when u check out for additional 5% discount. This coupon is valid only till 20th Jan.

New Canon Powershot SX150 IS 14.1MP 12X Zoom + 4GB Card + Case+Battery+Charger | eBay

So, after discount the camera price would be 7742.50

So.

The price is unbeatable, but its written "lithium ion battery" and canon sx150is doesnt work on lithium battery, but works on 2 AA batteries. Check with tradus/seller on tradus regarding this. Yes tradus is providing 4gb card and camera carry case, but then if they are not giving charger and rechargeable batteries then u will have to buy them separately.

Whereas in the ebay link i gave u, the seller is giving 4gb card, camera case and rechargeable batteries and charger.
