f/2.8 very cute.. but i think will hold 2 lenses + body at most.
or maybe film slr + primes..
actually now that i don't have IR body maybe the f/1.4 will do. i think can stuff k20d + 70-300 + 10-20 + 50 + 28/24. :devil:
guess i will consider when my hadley pro goes.. that hole is holding up fine for now. must be cos i always cross sling it and then when walking rub against the bag strap :bsmilie:

yeah, then that's a good size.
i like the concept of one large front pocket instead of 2 small ones like hadley pro.
maybe they will modify the hadley that way.
hmm ok, but how to go about doing that? i got paypal but usually i buy stuff online just click on website's payment mode only lol. dont really know how to do transfers.
Then maybe i will order once i reach the campus.
leong u going london????????????

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm the trouble is no one is going to accept sgd for your pounds right now, so they will only take pounds, if you get what i mean...
a lot of my friends changed at rates of 1:3 when they came uk, or at least last year, then that would be 1:2.3... so even i am not willing to accept sgd in lieu of pounds... since if i hang onto my bank account i might minimise losses... :bsmilie:
paypal will accept account to account transfer across borders, but you will lugi a bit.. first on paypal exchange rates (few points) + 3.x% surcharge.
bank wire transfers, suffice to say i haven't needed to use that for my entire study period, so i don't know how much they charge.
alternatively you can email this company and see what they say, i pass you the site in pm.

I need to pay for my airticket + expenses also.......
ehhh the company replied me already.. they only accept paypal. then must leave a contact number and the delivery address with them, & then they send by parcel force..
now i need to decide which one to buy and to find out the rates paypal use.. which they wont reveal until i pay up right..? :think:
local banks or money changer? banks charge lower right? but i think paypal rates wont be super good lol

How does PayPal calculate currency conversion / exchange rate?
Question :
Answer :
PayPal receives a quoted wholesale rate twice a day. We then add a 2.5% spread above this rate to determine the retail foreign exchange rate that is applied to transactions involving a currency conversion.
Keep in mind that some of the rates quoted in the media are the inter-bank rates that are available only to the largest international banks, which purchase currencies in quantities of US $1,000,000 or more. A more applicable comparison for consumers is the exchange rates quoted at airports or other consumer currency exchange shops.
You can view PayPal's exchange rates at any time by following these steps:
1. Log into your PayPal account at www.paypal.co.uk
2. Click ‘Profile’ at the top of the page
3. Click ‘Currency Balances’ link under the 'Financial Information' column
4. Enter the requested information in the ‘Currency Exchange’ box and click ‘Calculate’
5. The current PayPal exchange rate will appear in the box below
* If funds are transferred from one balance to another in an account, the exchange rate will be calculated and presented during the conversion
* If a payment includes currency conversion, the exchange rate will be calculated and presented in the Send Money flow
* Refunds are performed using the exchange rate which was current at the time of the original payment
