[ Camera ] All about the OLYMPUS PEN Lite E-PL5

[dkuan88]

anyone know if this is available at sitex?

Sitex will not have such pricing.

Really tempting TLK at USD 700 only about S$860. Plus freight less than 1k.;p
Is there anyway to get the mail-in rebate if no frens in states?

Ya, super price. Is it possible to order from there? Looks like it's US only.

Actually big online stores like amazon and bh photo are also selling at USD 699. If you order from bh photo, they are able to ship to Singapore. Shipping at about USD50. For amazon, can use borderlinx, vpost, comegateway etc.

Dun forget to also factor in 7% GST.

seems e-pl5 won't be available at SITEX

http://home.olympusimage.com.sg/ois/app/webroot/uploads/sitex2012_2850.pdf
olympus use a pretty image (both the lady and the e-pl5) on the brochure front page, but the e-pl5 can't be found inside

instead, oly is trying to clear stocks of the e-pm1, e-pl3, and e-p3

i also asked oly on facebook about the flashair card. they said the 1st 100 buyers can get a 8GB flashair card. i wonder how they count as the 1st 100, and whether all have been redeemed. it seems strange that this was not highlight big big in their ads to help sell it

more questions than answers. am tempted to get the e-pl5, but pricing is quite close to the om-d. really liked the twin dials when i rented via camera rental centre

Get that OM-D instead. that 5-axis is a plus point.

Flash air is hype. Read the reviews online all say its slow to write to the card. And very slow to trx to mobile.

SLK- USD600
TLK - USD 700

Black Friday Prices Are Here!

Wonder how much is the shipment though.

i ordered the E-PL5 from adoroma liao...! black friday deal... USD549 for the body alone only...! that should cost less than SGD800 even after GST + shipping...!

anyway i couldn't find it available when i was in sydney last month... so i didn't buy then... but i think the black friday sale now is cheaper even with shipping + GST included...!


regards,

Hi all, I saw the deal too. At here Black Friday | Olympus

I am tempted to buy the epl5 twin lens kit + vf3.

Is it safe to buy from this getOlympus.com website? Because I might be able to use my friend's US address.

Anyone has experience? Positive or negative experience from that website?

Think the TLK offer is only from getolympus.com. That's what's I observe. The rest are selling the 40-150 for $199.
