    I have the same camera I got it from the camera shop in the Pharmacy in Northside shopping center. Certainly if the guy in there doesnt have one in stock he will certainly get one for you.

    I would highly recommend this dealer for Fuji camera and parts. He has looked after my Dad, my sister and myself with Fuji cameras and we got good deals from him.

    Not 100% sure. I know at the time my dad bought one for his S304 Fuji and got it half prcie cause it was second hand and bought it with the camera. I think they might be over 100 euro. But like I said dont quote me on that. I know its possible to get lens that are not made by Fuji that will fit Fuji cameras aswell and they are quite a bit cheaper but I am not sure of their quality.

    Just bought the same camera myself, having a bit of bother with it though - it's not powering up.
    I think the price depends a lot on where you buy it from.
    Probably the worst place to buy one is directly from the company

    There are quite a few going on www.eBay.co.uk most seem to be ok, just so long as you know what you are looking for.

    Again, just shop around, and consider delivery (when buying online) as a big factor.
    The camera was £300 in shops up here, I got mine for £225 online.

    I bought mine in Argos in Nutgrove for €379 back in November and hav'nt had one problem since, it produced GREAT photos for the new years party (40 people cant be wrong!) Ive now seen that its dearer in Argos at the moment.

    I bought a s5500 recently from dublin camera exchange on georges street recently and got an good deal,-€400 with case card and charger.
    I think they had a wide angle lens in stock but dunno if they had a telephoto one.
    There prices seem ok and they no about photography, unlike staff in jessops, spectra, argos, etc.
    Its worth checking out i'd say.
