Refurbished Canon Digital Camera: Quality Cameras For Less..

When you venture out to buy a Canon digital camera, youre looking for
the quality that Canon delivers. However, todays digital cameras are
very expensive, especially the models that come with all the bells and
whistles. Instead of buying a brand new model, however, why not try a
refurbished Canon digital camera? A refurbished Canon digital camera
is a camera that was once used but has been refurbished to be like
new. The best part is that you arent paying full retail price for it.
So, you get the quality youre looking for without spending loads of
money. <a href=http://www.smartnfun.biz>Digital Camera</a>

I hope that I don't irritate a lot of folks by responding to this spam.
But I would like to share this data point.

A few years ago, I bought a refurbished Canon S80. This camera had a
serious defect. Video captures all featured a continuous, high pitched,
loud audio tone. I found many posts on usenet, and sites such as DPReview
regarding this issue. It appeared to me that this was a design defect,
rather than a sample defect. So I decided against going through warranty
service. Instead, I asked my vendor to take the refurbished S80 back
for credit, and sell me a new S80 instead. I was fortunate that he
agreed, although of course I had to spend additional money.

I can find no defect in this S80.

Based on this experience, I suspect that the word "refurbished" is
sometimes a succint code word for "defective early designs that were
corrected later." I will hesitate to buy any refurbished product that
is as sophisticated as an S80.
