Might just go for this one.

Edit, maybe not with £14 delivery to an IV mainland postcode.

Hi great deal fantastic camera , I'm after something a bit more compact myself is the double cash back apply to all Panasonic cameras and finally, could anyone recommend any particular model ? .

See http://promotions.panasonic.co.uk/promotions/promotions/view_terms/170 for eligible models.

Good deal if you don't have amex (otherwise Jessops is a lot cheaper), I picked mine up from Jessops yesterday for net £200.

£549 paid in store
£200 Panasonic cashback
£150 amex cashback (£50 back per £150, three transactions)

Instore.

Not possible to split payment cards online.

Really tempted by this but I think the standard lense is only the equivalent of 3x optical zoom? Extra lenses are more expensive than the camera by the looks of things. I would like a 14-140 lense instead as it is more versatile, although more bulky. Is there any incentive to upgrade from a Sony RX100 if I couldn't afford additional lenses? I can see that this has 4K video but I sadly don't know enough about cameras to decide.

Voted hot as it seems to be the cheapest yet.

Buying a camera is such a minefield, very lucky to own the RX100 as a lot of the photographs I've taken with it have turned out really well (complete amateur but enjoy taking holiday and walking photos in the Peaks).

It is a great camera, if it rains just stick it in your pocket. Still tempted, will have a think

Is Rx100 V1 still a good buy? It's on for £299 at Jessops.
Can possibly use 2x£50 cashback using Amex making it only £200.

if you are not going to upgrade/add/change lenses then imo stick with the rx100

been 'millions' of deals posted for amex cashback its 50 off 150 spend for the first 50k users etc

I somehow don't feel right about getting the multiple cashbacks, and instore staff have been told not to split. Either way, I went for the double lens bundle from Jessops, and even after only a single £50 credit it's going to cost me £399, down from the £699 it should be, which is an amazing saving!

How do you split the payment multiple times on the same card. Are they alright doing that?

​You ask in store, and from what I read in all those threads, Jessops staff are more than happy to help you.

yeah - you need to have the offer on your account though so dont try then hope for cashback i think

​i know, just I haven't see a comment(unless I missed any) that positively confirm that actually got the multiple cash back, because seems clear abuse to me..

been loads saying the individual cashbacks have tracked - dont think they get paid until end of month though? not sure

I haven't used the Jessops offer, but for other promotions Amex have issued me a statement credit within a few days that reduces the balance as any other payment would do. However that's not to say at the end of the month, or at a later date they couldn't or won't reverse the credit if they suspect misuse.

Wondering who to buy from now - here, JL or Jessops, with their 11% TCB....

Cheers. Personally I was leaning toward trying to get JL to price match this deal and buying from them, and this reinforces that now! Can't believe that I've not even held one of these and I'm looking to buy one - must be a good deal! :wink:

I went in store and the guy suggested it!

I read the terms and conditions and couldn't see anything where they said you can't.

Amex have it as an offer. Log in via app or web and save to card.

Does the AMEX offer finish soon? Wondering if it's worth getting a card just for this.

The camera was not available in 2013 was it?

​I believe that is 2011 or 2012 model as currently its on V5. Considering one iteration every year it does seem like it was launched around 2011/2012.

How long does it take for you to get the £200 cash back and do you defiantly get it as it's a lot of money to not
Thanks on advanced

Heat added. Was thinking of buying this yesterday then found this.. Got John Lewis to price match this. Picking it up at their store tomorrow! Whoop!

£319 for this is a bargain!

One amex card. Not received but had three emails to say thanks for using the offer.

bought the dual lenses version from jessops with amex offer for only £249 . bargain of the year.

​this one is GX7 MarkII, which should be similar price as GX7

GX7 Mark II is the GX8

Just bagged one from Jessops using 3 transactions. super buy

It was available, when I bought mine I think the mark 2 was out so the mark 1 was discounted.

I am guessing CAMERA50 code can be used in store as it says on website which reduced from 699 to 649, which with Amex and Panasonic double cashback indeed brings the price down to £249. Indeed bargain of the year.

I already have A5100 but so tempted to buy at this price.

Well seems I have no local mates with Amex cards to help me out on this one. I do have a price match from JL with free delivery tho. If I never knew some were getting the 2 lens kit for £249, I'd have been happy to buy the single lens kit for £319. Who knows ... it might be cheaper again tomorrow.

does it have to be an official amex or can it be say a barclaycard amex?

I got John Lewis to price match this, so cheers OP!

That jessops trick is a beauty. I am guessing sometime in mid January Jessops are getting a ticking off from Amex. "What the £&@# have your cashiers been doing?" :smile:

I purchased on 28/12 and although I had an email from Amex to confirm the promotion I haven't yet had the credit. I know it says 5 days after transaction and then could be up to 90 days after the promotion ends.... but does anyone have any experience of how long it's taken for their Amex credits to show?

Thank you. Showing today.

And mine

How are people getting on with their cashback claims? I put mine in on the 31st and still nothing (I received the automated reply saying my claim has been received), yet I read that a few people who put theirs in before me had their money within a week.

Cashback received today, loving the camera, brought 2 news lenses already.
