This Friday I was in Jeddah spending some great time with my wife, and for the second time I drove from Makkah to Jeddah in about half an hour - the first was to the airport and took almost an hour and half. We profited to have a look on the red sea, the weather was defintely great and the view was amazing. Below a pict that I took from my Canon A560, resized but could give an idea ;-)

Canon A560 PowerShotToday I recieved my first digital camera, a Canon A560 PowerShot 7.1MP. I’m not big fan of digital photography at this time, but I studied photography in black and white some times ago, so this was somehow on of my fav hobbies. I also got this camera with a very low price, almost 80% of its current price here after discount. A friend called a camera shop here asking for its price and he told me that currently it’s 719 SAR (about 193 USD), while in total I have paid only 144 SAR (about 38 USD), so it was defintely a great deal !

Canon A560 PowerShot

The camera came with two AA batteries, memory card 16Mo, PC and TV cable. So next time I’ll try to get the camera case Canon PowerShot, a bigger memory card, and a tripod… There are some accessories kits available at Amazon but I was worried because reviews wasn’t encouraging at all, such the guy who recieved a Nikon case instead of a Canon one!! So I’ll simply leave this for another big deal.

Be sure to not miss this week the Black Friday Deals on Amazon, there will be hourly deals from 6am to 6pm PST along with thousands of products on sale for a limited time!
