Hmmm maybe I'll get one from there instead.
With the Exchange rate of 1SGD to about 1.55USD, the DA*50-135 is selling at 999.95USD.. round up only 1550SGD, and the 16-50 is 899.95USD so round up only1395....I think even Courier service won't add up to 500+ for both lense I think...
Tried the 2 lenses, the focussing is indeed quite and fast. quite impressive.
One of the 16-50mm is with me.:sweat:
I saw the other K10D Grand Prix Special Edition in another camera bag. I think they will be available on Monday. Try the shops on Monday afternoon.
Yes it is available individually and i think because there are spare. The street price will be lower.
hahaha... i almost jump onto the boat.. but fortunely, I got life Jacket...
Should keep them hungry till Sunday then go BARGAIN HUNTING hahaha

:bigeyes::bigeyes::bigeyes:
did you pay their price
on another note, do you want a godson
If there's demand, they might bring in more lens and maybe bring down the prices
. No, they don't bother people buy or don't buy. They are there for product exposure.:bsmilie:

well, what i overheard their own conversation is that Pentax gave them discount for 10Sets with K10D and the lense.. and if they breakup and sell, they still earns.. I believe the Earns is quite a bit.. lets assume K10D outside is selling 1250-1300.. that mean 2 lense add up is 3399, but the total they sell with 2 individual lense is 3598.. that is alread 200 more.. and I believe Pentax give them special rate for them to promote the products.. not to earn more money to cover their expenses...
I only know they will maintain that 10 sets of K10D and the lenses for sales as bundle.
Maybe they will break it up on the last day of sales.airconvent

mmm...curious..the shriro tech manning the booth mentioned a "desmond" bought a 16-50 earlier in the afternoon...could this be the same istDES? (DES= desmond)? 
Do post a report if did purchase it. Maybe want to compare image quality of your "condo" with my low-end "hdb" Sigma 18-50 f/2.8Macro heh heh;p

Richard, what time did you went? I was there in the evening. Stayed quite a while chatting there after trying out the lenses. Met fengwei's good friend also, the one who has the other K10D GP.
btwn fengwei did some shots with the lenses 2 days ago.

istDes, congrats on the new addition, though I would have thought you would have bought it AFTER Comex and save some money in the process.
BTW my Japanese client tells me it's about S$1400 in Japan and the 50-135mm just a little more. He expects it will come down price wise.
