hmm..yeah,.coz my father's frend sold mi the kit for the cost price..but disadvantage is tat there's no further free gifts lah..haha :bsmilie:

is any1 free to teach mi on how to take photos? ;p

Once you have gotten the basics on that link, you could go out and try things out. You really need to experiment with your camera.

Teaching photography is not that direct. Everyone has their own style of taking photos.

The best way is to just play with your new toy. Perhaps you can post your pictures with technical details and everyone here will help you out.

Happy shooting...

You mean you can't get the kit at 1399 without adding the extended warranty?
That's a rubout man.

the camera itself only got a 1 year warranty so the person is saying that if I extend warranty it has unlimited protection if it got fungus or if I drop the lens etc. :bheart:
so got 3 years warranty in total.

i got it $1350 3 weeks ago, did not even bargain....at a shop I haven't bought anything before..(mscolor central)...come with 1x UV filter foc (maybe $10-15) and screen protector foc(?$10-15), got 50mm 1.8 at $125, plus another UV filter $10, 1 week later speedlite 270 at $199, again did not bargain...your price is good but should be better if it's a friend's shop....

mine comes wif a UV filter & screen protector too..
