It's official... I'm calling it at 5:45PM EST.

This is a 3-day Woot Off.

Screw you guys, I'm going home.

sometimes it seems like they just like to screw with us

does this mean its tomoro afternoon?

Wakko Talks Faboo!!!

Oh good, now I can take a photo to document the many faces of agony this woot off is inspiring.

This is barely even a deal.

I think you misheard me. I did not say "Give me a lot of bags of crap."

I said "Give me ALL the bags of crap."

a woot off doesn't always = a Bag Of... tomorrow could be business as usual!

Need crappola de Baggie

I have one of these. They are pretty good cameras for the price, but don't expect to zoom in too much.

take a picture, it will last longer

Oh where, oh where is my little Bag of Cuuuuuute!?

Fus Ro Dah!

OK, I am not that much of a newbie, but I am still trying to find a faster refresh. Someone suggested using the links in the forum, but I am not sure what forum that would be. I tried refreshing the blog, but mywoot still beat them to the punch on the new item.

I have only one Barrels of Crud to my name and want more!! :-) Any ideas you're willing to share?

Am I having de ja vu?

i'm sure this has been mentioned - but
me thinks (or is it thinketh)
this'll be a three day woot- off situation.

but i digress-
have 2 lumix cameras (not this particular model)
to my knowledge, you can't get a nicer lens on a camera at this price point.

i am just saying not all woot off have a bag offered...

RATS

This sure is beginning to look like a January clearance three day Wootoff. Of course that will only be until I decide to pack up and head home...

To continue the trend of somewhat serious replies, the 14 MP Lumix I bought a month or two ago has some real image quality issues. There's no immediately obvious way to save RAWs (if there even is, period) and it feels like it saves really low-quality JPGs even at the highest settings. Lots of red color bleed, and the menu is really confusing to use.

My older Canon Digital ELF camera was a lot better. Intuitive menu, nothing hidden behind "custom settings only", and able to load up custom software to dump RAWs or do a lot of other interesting stuff like super-long exposures.

You guys remember when the name Leica meant something?

... I'm old.

Very true... However, I think Colonel Crap has something to prove, and this is his venue now. It's very possible that he listened to the east coast complaints about a bag coming up during the commute home, and is delaying it until later...

Never underestimate woot...

AAAhhhh. I have work to do. Must tear myself away from Woot, have fun trying for a Bale of Cotton if it ever appears.

I have a Panasonic Lumix point-and-shoot very similar to this model and it is FANTASTIC!!

If only you could combine a phone like the previous woot and this camera. It would be a modern marvel of technology..

Chuck Norris does not need 4X Optical zoom - he makes the scenery come to him.

Didn't they make the Leica Frogs?
(quality post please)

Dang it Woot, I have things to do today!

So help me, I'm NOT missing out this time though....

Hmmm...in the past whenever a Woot-off has lacked a Bundle of Carrots, it was because there'd already been one given out recently before.

Considering they had both a baggie in the December Woot-Off and a Santa's Bandolier all within the last 30 days, I wonder if this is a bagless Woot-Off?

You will Leica da pictures with this camera.
Great optics.
