There is also a spare battery, and the original manual, dated 2011, and the pocketbook - all in a well-padded Lowepro bag.  All barely used.

The money has not yet been collected, as I was going to gather the contributions at the next meeting in January. If all the contributors are happy with this, I will proceed to look into finding a great deal here. Again, if there is some money contributed beyond the price of the computer, I will put it toward those little extras that make a difference, like a lens pen, or perhaps a small portable hard drive for back-up. Note that I will give all receipts to John.
