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 olympushopefully more people join olympus so we can have more lens in B&S

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.
Remember Pertama?
(they are now Harvey Norman...)
Oh they did a switcheroo from 3 years warranty to a 2 lens combo for the E510?

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

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 ?
Is the FL 36 good enough or any other flash to rec ?
Do i need the battery grip ? i saw it today at the Comex.
Which salesman did you get ? i went just now and the salesman only offer me $1399 with dual lens, 1 piece of 2gb cf card, bag and workshop. Never offer me protective film and tripod lehz..
