Availability of Pentax stuff in Singapore?

Yes, at 6th floor

John 3:16 in funan has some pentax lenses too, and can help you source more.

The manager at 3:16 is generally a very nice guy but going there to look for pentax stuff is a waste of time. the shop is generally a Canon stronghold with some nikons thrown in.
I periodically walk into their shop (the manager still finds time to greet me!) just to see if they are more pentax-friendly but no such luck.... They do have 2 or 3 sigma k-mount lenses though...

For Funan Centre , I would ask you to check out Song Brothers, Alan Photo and even Bally Photo for better luck...

btw, congrats Gengh on your new K100D...welcome to the Rebellion! May the force be with you...always glad someone has turned away from the Dark Side!

Yeah... My experience with the John 3:16 guy was that they don't carry much Pentax stuff.
If you want though, you can tell them what you want and they will source for you.
But don't expect it to be cheaper or what. They will just sell it at market rate.
Afterall, their cost is not any cheaper since they don't bring it in in bulk.

Thanks airconvent. Yes, it's cool to be different!

I went to John 3:16 to ask around too, having heard and read about how helpful they are. Samuel, the manager, was really nice and even though he was swamped with customers, he still took time to serve and chat with me intermittently. But it's true, it's a Canon paradise and not so much for other brands. Pity, every brand should have a shop like that!

Can try The Camera Workshop at Peninsula Shopping Centre. They carry all brands.

Their prices are a little pricey though...
Can try this forum too...
