I still have the BBB virus! Bought another Emoblitz flash unit (this time with E-TTL), Tokina circular polariser filter & Optech straps. Argh..! Hehehe!

can I know how much is the flash unit and where did U get it?
thx
 

is the raynox one the one at 80bucks? thats half the canon price. someone wanna sell me the original canon set at 30 bucks. should i take it?

The Raynox adapter is about the same price as the Canon one, should be around $50. Are you talking about the Wide converter instead?

I believe on the previous two IT fair price is same bt the free gift is abt the same
 

I am also looking to buy the S5.

Previous show price in June is $699 (2pcs 4GB+AA rechargable kit+digital kit bag+case+card reader)

Prices e-quoted so far,
MS: $615.25 with GST (free 4g card, AA charger kit)
CP: $625.95 with GST (free 4g card, AA charger kit)
AP: $629 include GST or not.. (free 4g card, AA charger kit, digital kit bag)

Maybe show price will drop? But not sure how good is the bundle....
 

case...as in hard case for the cam or...??
just need to ask..how to use the cam efficiently in cold countries??scared it might get condensation easily...

Prices quoted seems reasonable. As long way below $699 rrp is good! New ones now all made in China only, quality should be the same I believe.

Anybody use a 3rd party ETTL flash with your S5 IS? In most modes, except Manual, the picture looks much brighter with the built-in flash instead ?! Both comparison with flash set at mid (0) setting.
In Manual mode, when I tried full power for both internal and external flash, the external flash much brighter by a far margin.
