Went to comex, got the E-410 and my friend got the E-510. Good deals!
 

jus back from comex... had talked to Keith n for E510 pakage... it comes with 2 lens, one CF card, bag, one battery, 1 yr warranty,..... for S$1399... seem like a very good deal...

they removed the extra battery + 2 year warranty + 2x2GB card for the 40-150 lens?

Anyway great deals for olympus :) hopefully more people join olympus so we can have more lens in B&S :)
 

Wat are the E1 prices and packages? What about good deals on batteries and lens? Bags? Dry cabinets?

I can testify that the E510 with dual lens is a great deal at Comex. Mai tu liao!!!! Go and get it!!!
 

Oh they did a switcheroo from 3 years warranty to a 2 lens combo for the E510?

Nope. The actual package is :
E-510 Kit + 40-150mm + 2Gb + Bag + Workshop + 1 Year Warranty.
Maybe a bit more 4 CS members. Cheers.
 

Be very careful with these extended warranty offered from dealers instead of those from Olympus direct. Check with them for the clause before making a hasty purchase. There are many cases where the dealers were taken to court for not honouring these extended warranties.

When companies change owners and change names they have been known to void all extended warranties.

Remember Pertama?
 

(they are now Harvey Norman...)

I heard a first-hand account that the Pertama warranties were not valid when they "closed down" :thumbsd:

Anyways as long as they are around, it is okay...

In some cases it is cheaper to buy their in-house warranties. e.g. Their Apple computers in-house extended warranty is cheaper then AppleCare but you have to read the Ts & Cs to see what is covered.

Actually they did. You either get the longer warranty or the second kit lens minus one 2GB card, bag, and tripod.
 

$1399 cash/credit/NETTS

Dual lens kit + 1 2GB CF + Bag + Workshop + ?1 year warranty +/- small stuff

I think it is a damn good deal. Those who want a E510 should go get it at the show.

BTW, a little OT, but the 40D package is $2899, with the USM lens or something. With that kind of money, you can actually buy TWO E510 dual lens package.
 

Is this e510 good for wedding shots ? My sis is getting married at the end of the year and sponsoring some $$$ for the camera. Although she has a photographer to cover the whole event, she expect me to take some also.

Of course. But to be effective, you're going to need a powerful flash, an external battery pack for the flash and nice bright wide-angle lenses... perhaps she's willing to sponsor part of that as well... ;p

Dont need the 40D or the IS USM lens. Just need the E510 IS and the award winning E1 kit lens 14-54mm. Done for the day. Guaranteed a good choice. :thumbsup:

What lens is good ? I'm getting the E510 dual lens package which consist of the 14-42mm and the 40-150mm. Is that enough ?

Didn't really know his name. I just look out for those senior like salesman and tell him I am interested in buying one and ask him what he can give beside the normal freebies. At first, he offer me extra 2x 1g xd card but I told him that i will buy on the spot if he throw in the protective film and tripod which he did:D
The salesmen there are basically competing each other for the commission. So, take you time to look out for the best salesman to give the best offer.:thumbsup:
