Not all cameras are expensive here. I brough the Canon IXUS860IS from Salam and it was cheaper than anywhere else I'd seen it, including online.

oryx - if it isn't pink, then i might follow your lead.

 

tearstosmile - i already have the lenses.  got 2 of them in thailand along with the body (cheap cheap cheap) and amazon had a great deal on the third lense a while back.

 

qatman - i'm looking for one bad for everything - baby is coming so i want easy access/portability to capture all the moments for the grandparents. 

 

sounds like salam is the place to go.

 

thanks all.

 

BTW - any idea why cameras and lenses are so expensive here?  i would have thought that customs duty is low here.

There are some Lowepro bags in carrefour at city center however I must say that you will not have much of a choice. I suggest you buy a hard case for your camera and then have a suitable Lowepro to pack the camera and lenses,  thru internet shopping. I purchased mine from http://www.adorama.com/

For Camera Bags Salam have best choice of bags. Regarding lenses it is better you buy through Amazon or Ebay which will be cheaper minimum20-30 less than doha market.

 

Even if u want to buy from Doha, U can visit National, one shop just close to Karwa taxi stand a Photoshop. They have good choice of Sigma, Canon, Nikon lenses. For sony lenses visit Modern Home and Canon visit Salam.

 

Infect i ordered one camera with three lenses from ebay in just 8000QR (Canon40D) with three year extended international waranty . If i will buy same from salam (which is only authorise dealer of canon) the cost not less than 12000QR

Gentlemen

I want a charger for my ipod that i can plug in to mains electricity. the apple one costs 120qr. is it possible to buy a cheaper one? if so do you know where?

 

Withnail....you aint going to like this but I use a make up bag for my camera and their bits!

The Canon store on the first floor of the Salam shopping centre (near City Center mall) has a selection of camera bags. Might be worth checking out.
