Panasonic Offer Reminder!

I'll actually be pleased when this offer is over, I'm so tempted to buy a GH2 and 14-140 as the deal is so good.

I really want to stick with my G2 until the GH3 eventually comes out (as I really want AVCHD 2.0, as I'll be using it primarily for video)

To stave of my urge to buy I've just ordered a 100-300mm to give me something new to play with.

Hopefully I can last today without hitting the buy button on the GH2 :)
 
I got a GF2 using tesco vouchers so that I could get lightroom, still waiting for it to turn up and hoping it is a full upgradable version.

Camera isnt bad altough I will probably end up selling is as I really dont like touch screen cameras but wanted to have a play with something like this and cant complain if I got it with vouchers.
 
if anyone's considering buying a Panasonic, but not too fussed about Lightroom, I'll offer to buy the software from you for about £100 (ono :)), so that could be a nice little discount for you ;)
 
Looks like they are giving £50 cash back instead of 5 year gtee.
 
I think now is even better deal, you get free Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® 3 plus £50 cashback. Am I right?

Does anyone know which cameras qualify for this offer, as in the advert it says "when you purchase a qualifying Lumix G digital camera & additional Lumix G lens together between 8th September 2011 and 31st October 2011" am i right then in thinking it is only certain ones in this range ? the reason i ask is i have seen a G2 with a 14-42mm lens for £370.

The G2 was applicable for the previous offer so I'd imagine it is now.

Shame it doesn't cover the GF2. The twin lens kit is now under £400 - free Lightroom too would be sweeeeeeet.
 
Yeah I'm about to pull the trigger on the GF2 and really wish it was in the deal... factoring in the cashback and freebies the gf3 or g3 bundles are are barely any more money than the gf2 + 14mm kit, but I hate the look of the gf3 and don't want the 14-42 the g3 comes with.
 
If you didn't already know, the Gf2 + 14mm is a paltry 299 at currys.
But I think I'll get the twin kit for 399. I can always sell the 14-42 if I don't like it and not lose much.
 
if anyone's considering buying a Panasonic, but not too fussed about Lightroom, I'll offer to buy the software from you for about £100 (ono :)), so that could be a nice little discount for you ;)

I'm hovering over the buy button on a GF3 at the moment. I already have LR3, so being able to sell the promo copy might just be the push I need.

But could I just clear something up? Would I be able to advertise the free promo copy for sale on TP?

hi Sponge... the offer still stands! I think as long as we do it properly through the classifieds pages, all will be well :)
 
Sorry, but I won't be able to offer LR3. I decided not to buy the GF3 and ordered the Olympus XZ-1 instead. :D
 
GF3 is now at £379.95! It's really tempting, but I've decided on a different camera now. Must...resist...
