I got a Lumix LX3 tube Adaptor (to 52mm) Emolux with 0.45mm Wide Angle Lens at John 3:16 (Funan) for S$150! They got another set for same price for 0.5mm wide angle and Macro lens.
Anyone got any idea where to get ZOOM lens since the LX3 zoom is only 2.5x ?
Also, any idea where to get Lomo camera?
Cheers!

i enquired at john 3:16 yesterday as well, and was quoted for $109 without adapter..
in the end, i got my 0.5x wide angle and macro lens at $68 at AP Funan.
I was trying to take a macro shot just now in P mode and when holding the button down halfway, a red icon appeared at the top-left of the screen. It was a camera surrounded by many curvy lines. Looked something like that: ((( camera )))
Any idea what it meant? The camera beeped a few times too so I guess it's indicating something?
Also, another question: One AF Focus mode has a 1-Area focus (Square within square icon). Another mode has the exact same icon except with a H at the bottom. What does this second focus mode do?
If there's any convenient place where I can get answers about my LX-3, do tell me because after months of usage, I'm still slightly confused by how its manual controls work. Thanks

What happened to your instruction manual?
Lost it? :dunno:
What you are asking is on page 36 and page 84 of the manual.
And I don't even have the camera. :what:

WOW! That is quite cheap at S$68 at Allan Photo. Is it also made in Japan lens? Who can advise what zoom lens to buy ?
This is the Wide Angle Lens I have purchased with adaptor type for S$150. I think I was conned since the sales person told me it is MADE-IN-JAPAN when the website clearly shows it is made in Fujian, China. It is ok if I pay higher, etc. But to cheat me of the source of manufacture is unwanted and very unprofessional. So long John 3:16, it is the last time I will buy anything from you.
EMOLUX is CHINA Made not Japan Made. Please note fellow photographers.

In case anybody tinking of replacing the lens:
"Dear Sir
The charges for the lens will be around $257.72 (Currently there's not stock, we need to place order, duration of shipment will be 4-6weeks)
As for the service charge : $60 is applicable if its our of warranty.
Warmest Regards"

where did you buy this? in fact most shops sell this brand. and i believe it is not only compatible with LX3, it is compatible with some other compacts as well.
lolz...so the 1 yr warranty is only to waive the $60 service charge? Alot companies are playing w the "consumer laws' loop holes" and sad to say, this part of sg law is the weakest or cant b bothered to improve area
I think it depends on whether it is interior or exterior damage to the product.
If it is interior damage, normally the 1 year warranty will cover all of it.
If the lens got wet or scratched, don't think any companies will give u a new lens for free.
It is a market practice that they will need to waive off any service charges within the year of warranty.

I tink if interior damage = can't be caused by user = manufacturer's defect AND if under warranty, normally will waive totally lah.
