Thank you Samuel!!

Back and front focusing can be adjusted.

If only some of your lenses have a problem, use AF fine tune in the camera.

If all lenses pretty much back or front focusing in the about the same amount, there is this allen key hole thing behind the mirror you can twist to adjust.

If you are not sure how to do it, bring it into NSC.

Collected my D7000 body from H today. Freebie battery currently out of stock and will only be available two weeks later.
Anyway, thanks so much to Samuel for the GB! Me off for some quality time with my new body! Hee..hee ;-)

 

[ziggurat]

Got my D7000 body already at location H. And pending the battery.
Thanks samule a lot.
But found a little focus issue, that is common now.
By the way, I saw more than ten bodies. So many copies.

 

[samueltan99]

i've collected my toy as well. ended up getting the body instead of kit.
body - 1650
18 -55mm - 180
55 - 200mm - 190
50mm f1.8 prime - 192 (price went up)
spare battery - 54 (price went up, got it on the spot)
Also collected my set of Freebie A (card + reader + tripod + bag)
8GB card is a Kingston class 6
For those interested: my 16GB Sandisk Ultra Class 4 (15Mb/s) can take up to 400+ pics when set to Raw + jpeg (single card in camera)
Haven't tested the card for speed limits cos i'm still figuring out how to use the cam. haha!

Shutter count was 0 when i picked it up. Firmware is v1.01

I'm now officially in the club! =D

Thanks to Samuel for organizing the GB!!

Hi Guys, sorry i stepped in late. I clarified with Sunny earlier at 6 pm today. The dealer will honor all the prices for those buyers in my group buy list.

There may have been some confusion earlier which is now clarified. For ALL buyers who have registered group buy thru me earlier, and later paid extra for the GST or price increase, for example paid 54 dollars instead of 50 dollars for the battery, WILL get their money refunded. The only thing they may have to refund thru your other purchase. Just bring your receipt to the shop, quote your nickname, your hp number and clubsnap group buy. Plse seek Sunny's help if you need to.

The special PWP prices are ONLY entitled to buyers in my namelist i posted earlier.

Wow! Samuel, thanks alot got this! Guess I'll be going down to get more accessories (lens pen etc). They also forgot to stamp on my camera warranty while the rest of the lenses are stamped.
Once again, thank you Samuel for putting in the effort! Kudos to you!

Hi AmyNg, Ok, good luck. I did manage to find some prices online which needs to be confirmed in HK, but it's in my other post at this link: http://www.clubsnap.com/forums/threads/635497-Hong-Kong-Camera-Gears-Shopping-Guide/page27

I also collected D7000 body today at location K

I chose body, freebie A, PwP battery (not in stock but they will let me know when it arrives, @50 nett), digi dry cab

Little stock for lens at this location, with prime lens @182, i actually wanted the 35mm 1.8 which they had no stock and in any case i'm going to HK next thursday , better buy it there. Means i have body but no lens to take pictures this weekend, great... oh well i can read the manual i guess.

But based on this pricing, isn't the pricing at IT show at 1999 for body better with more freebies? as it included the prime lens.

Thx for effort samuel!

Just outa curiousity.. what's the brand is the dry cabi?

 

[SkimMilk]

Digicabi. They dont supply Aipo and Digicabi is not bringing in the ML (moodlight) series anymore.

nned

Did they tell you when the stocks for the 50mm lens will be in? I am also waiting for it. On Thu, they told me that they still have stock at Outlet H n that they will transfer from Outlet H to Outlet B in 1 day but till now nothing heard from them. Get a feeling I kena smoke by them.

i noticed that the number of shutter actuations are all even. is this correct? i have used both infraview and opanda with the same results.

Remember that every time you activate LV it is considered 1 shutter count. So if you use Liveview to shoot, it will be 2 shutter actuations every shot you take.
