[ BBBBug ] Olympus 45mm /f1.8


Btw. Tk ark quoted me $440. But no stock. So previous price of $448 seems to have dropped. But no stock, they can quote $2 also cannot buy :(

just got my 45mm 1.8 this evening at TK photo, $440 + a B+W silver 37mm UV filter at $50. I was 3rd on the waiting list for SLR Rev and they only received 2 units from olympus this time round :( popped over to TK and snapped it up when they had stock

I called at lunch.. they told me no stock.. thats why i went to MSc.. did you reserve a unit? If not then they are funee.. anyway if they dont want my business... so be it..
 

actually why so secretive about the price from Cathay, it is $428.
For the benefits of those who have not get your set. Here is the finding i have. Feel free to update this price too.

MSC: $440 (Cash), $450 (CC/NETS)
TK: $448 (info from bro here, see page 3)
Cathay: $428 (equote) , $450 (walk in)
SLRR: $410 (quoted from call yesterday noon, but they say no stock)

FYI: I bought from MSC yesterday afternoon at $440 as nearer to my house, too lazy to go Cathay.

to add on to this...

Parisilk Holland Village: $420 cash. Last piece taken by yours truly but more stock expected tomorrow. Hurry !!! ;)

Anyone know if this lens will work well with a raynox 250 with a step up ring?
 

Got mine from MSC, nearer to my place and paid $440 cash. The lens is nice and tried out a few things. Love the compactness.

Taken with my E-PL2.

Cathay is quoting 428 as said in previous posts for cash payment. 435 if u wanna pay by credit. they have more stock coming in tomorrow.

Got mine at Parisilk this afternoon tho, its going at 420 over there, cash payment as well.
 

i have tried calling most of the places, but all don't seem to have stock. :(

When I bought mine yesterday around 7 pm from MSC at location near AMK hawker center, I saw that they still have a few left. Also bought the Kenko silver color filter from them. Give them a call to see if they still have stock. This must be one of the hottest selling lens in Singapore this week.
 

Cathay photo called to tell me they got stock..but I already bought from else where liao...better ask for e-quote, phone is $450
 

thanx a lot, KTi, tky26.
I will call or ask them for e-quote.
