So any one have suggestion should I order online thru vpost or wait till FZ7 arrive in Singapore :think:
Currently I don't have any FZ5 or SLR-like camera, only have Kodak V550

 

[metallilan]

i think waiting would be a good idea...at least if you get singapore version theres the warranty!

 

[armadillo]

yeah, order online from USA if got problem then jia lat liao :sweat:

I called them today, but they mentioned that it is not Panasonic's policy to let the public know release dates of new models in advance.

Not sure if this is true or if the girl I spoke to does not the date and is too lazy to find out. I'll prefer to assume that there is such a policy. Anyway, that does not help us! We are still in the dark as to when it will be available in S'pore.

IMO, don't think Panasonic have such policy. Anyway FZ7 is not 100% new product anymore, because FZ7 already release in US, Japan, Hong Kong, Australia, Europe, that the least of the country they I know, because they're many users have posted their photo using FZ7. Even if you want to order from eBay you can get it at US$400 less. So I guess 2 things, slow shipment or quota for Singapore still out, maybe priority for US, Japan, Hkg, etc... :cry:

do you think the new ccd on the fz7 will have the same problem...i.e. pink spots?

i doubt so...the ccd on the fz7 is roughly the same as fz5 but a higher pixel count..
