Hi all, does anyone know if TK is still selling the LX5 (with SD8GB, Case, JJC Auto Lens cap and Screen Protector) at $629?
If it does, which deal is more attractive? TK's or Ms color's?
Thanks!
You can contact TK foto for a quote through their facebook, http://www.facebook.com/tkfoto
They do reply pretty quick.
Not facebook user, can someone pls help to advise the LX5 price by TKfoto? standard package includes Panasonic case, 8G and screen protector.

Finally brought myself to buy my LX5 from TK Photo today.
$619 (and can pay by credit card :thumbsup. Just SD8GB, Lumix Case and Screen Protector. No JJC Auto Lens Cap though.. but is okay, I don't really like the auto lens cap though I was blown away by the picture quality and fast lag time for a compact!!! ( I am a 5D and L lens user for years. I am convinced )

Congrats! I also just got mine last Monday from SLR Revolution. Wanted to get it from TK Foto at that time but the stock for the white one wasn't here yet. I think you should get the autolens cap, i find it really really convenient to use because i know how much of a hassle it is to keep taking off and putting back the lens cap. I'm glad you are happy with it, as for myself, i would like to be able to utilise the camera to the fullest because i'm just an amateur so therefore, i dun really have the knowledge in terms of tweaking stuff like aperture and shutter.

SLR R quoted $610 on 9/5/2011.
Got mine for SG$610 (cash) from SLR-R today.
Included items; 8GB card, Lumix case and three promo items - travel kit, some garskin stuff and a 'premium' leather case. The promo items need to be collected from the Panasonic service center.
EDIT: CP-P quoted SG$636 for the same thing, and another shop in Funan quoted SG$699 for the bundle lol.

I saw the same promotion at Centrepoint too $669 + $149 for another 4 years warranty by HN. Is it worth it?

got a set today includes 8gb card + case
Alan Photo $610. guess i have to go back and get the auto cap at $18....the detachable cap is quite troublesome imo.

The promotion ended on 12 June. But the good news is, Panasonic has reinstated the promotion with effect from today to mid-July. The official announcement is not even uploaded on the Panasonic website yet, but I checked with the Panasonic customer service who assured me the promotion re-started today. Even Alan Photo (an authorised dealer for Panasonic) was not aware and only confirmed it after I asked the salesperson to speak to their Panasonic sales rep to 'double-confirm'. The promotion is supposed to be the same as the earlier one, so for the LX-5, that means you get the Garskin redemption card, travel kit, and the premium leather case, to be redeemed from Panasonic. This is on top of the 8gb SD card and standard case that the retailer will give you at the point of purchase.
