50$!!!?
My God! I can't believe that. Where did you buy them from? Thats
amazing.
Is the low price the only reason you think it might be discontinued?
Or did you hear anything else? They still have their other older
cameras on the market and the G500 is surely a much better camera than
any one of them.
The only thing that could have been a bit better is the 4 way
controller, IMO. But thats a small thing. Overall, its really great!
