For lenses you can try th Sigma 70-300 APO. Quite a good one.
For grip, frankly I don't see the point unless you have big hands. Mine are average-sized and the grip is to bulky to hold for long periods.
As for the flash, where did you ask? You can try Cathay Photo (Peninsula or Marina), Peninsula Plaza camera shops, John3:16, Song Brothers in Funan, Alan Photo in Funan/SLS, MS Color, TK Photo.

I understood MScolor has ordered a few units of Sigma 70-300mm APO (pentax mount) and expected delivery next week. You can check with them again. I am also eyeing the 70-300 mm (sigma or tamron).........

Thanks for the link.. The price is :thumbsup:
Did you buy camera from this shop? Is their service good?
Do we have to pay additional tax for shipping this camera to Singapore?

hi there, do these prices include GST? Thanks
Went to Samsung showroom at Vivo City #02-28/29 in the afternoon and saw 2 GX-10 demo sets with 18-55mm Schneider on display. Both had batteries and card.
Larger buttons around LCD and different design for SR switch (SR renamed something else). Menu fonts are samller and on gray background. "Made In Philippines" indicated on label at camera base. Price displayed for other cameras but not this model.

did you manage to get the prices?
Didn't ask but from prices overseas, I expect body/kit to sell at same price as Pentax or at most S$100 lower.
Handled those same units today. The AF is pretty quick which was a pleasant surprise. Good body handling and feel. The wheel at the back reminds me of the Canon 30D too much though. Love that additional AF button at the back. Very useful.
ok thanks
I too had a Olympus E-300 user comment that the K10D rear resembles a Canon DSLR due to the button layout/font besides LCD, wheel and SR switch.
Also, after taking out my K10D, there have been 2 times when someone asked "Ïs that a K10D?", once from someone sitting beside me at CS Seminar and another from Canon user friend while on Sheares Bridge.
A thread on Samsung DSLR.
