Yea... best way to 'smuggle' the camera in is to bring it in as if you are already using the camera... put in box not good... Well, anybody still interested in the $7750 1DMKII? I can get one set out definitely by latest mid-July for anyone interested in parting with their money for this fantastic camera...devilicboy said:

got it from TK foto.. but if you pay by credit card, add 2% more, which is still slightly cheaper than CP
Not too sure whether they'll still sell it at that price though.. cos I was the first one to get it from them after paying a deposit
so they might have committed to me even before checking out the retail prices at other stores
Good luck though!

Yes. It definitely cost less in Singpapore. And you get the local warranty.
From what I know, most of the 1D MK2 has a very sensitive vertical grip shutter release button. It usually triggers when you touch it slightly. No chance to even do a focus lock.
Therefore, with local warranty, you can get this fixed without any additional cost.

Sorry, need to clarify: the sensitivity of the half-press is adjustable on the 1D/1Ds? Will it be done for free under warranty (ie claim as 'manufacturing defect')?
That was what I was told last time when I had my 1D.. But didn't bother.. Whether or not they charge now is up to them, cos the last time I did a shutter count, it was free, while it costs $20 to do a shutter count now :dunno:
And I don't think it's a manufacturing defect neither will it be labelled as a manufacturing defect... but then it depends yah
this discussion was also carried out on dpreview forums, if I'm not mistaken. Hope this helps!

The online Price shown at 182,000 Baht. Usually the conversion rate should be around 23. It will cost around 7913 without 7% GST .
To me, I do not think it cheap compare to SG price.

Sorry to be OT. But wondering how much is the EOS 1D MKII worth after 5 years?
For me I think, for those who are making money out of it are justified cos they can easily make enough money to cover the cost in no time.
For those who are amatuer like me, it would cost a bomb and the 7K camera have no value-retention at all. When I want to upgrade, then it would cost me another big bomb again.
