Interested? I'd just emailed the shop ask if they have stock & that I'll like reserved 3 and get them on Sun. Was thinking NoMoney & other bro maybe interested...

The last time I was quote RM140, but I hope to bargain at RM130. The problem is have stock or not. I believe this can be used on any DSLR

Ok, if have, kope one for me, price sounds good, $ is tight so best not to buy too expensive sensor cleaning toys, whatever works can already. :bsmilie: :bsmilie:

Thanks in advance! Doesn't matter if got stock, it's the thought that counts. =)

 

[NoMoney]

Hohoho... Must be kept away from kids, otherwise...

Thanks man. I will take 1 if avaliable

Nightmare's photo is really cool!

Hope to see your Pentax work soon

RM140 is a good price they have quoted you.

Just called OP, they have one set available, I WILL GET IT TODAY to celebrate my passing of driving! :bsmilie: :bsmilie: Since I will get a small sum back, didn't use all the credit I dumped in. <3 And straight away go shooting with it. RAWR!

gratez on passing looks like we'll see your shots tonight.:bsmilie: I need some inspiration on how to use wide angle in singapore.

 

[hjbyeo]

these will be your options;

Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 abt $650
Sigma 17-70mm f2.8-4.5 abt $600
Pentax P-DA 16-45mm f4 abt $640

Or you can get the kit lens & wait for DA*16-50mm f2.8;p (I'd checked with OP last week, K100D kit is $860 & K100D body is about $760-780)

Of course if you have more budget can consider primes too

Wah... just the body is 760, 780???!!! Mai Tu liao!

If you can afford get local warranty one, at least viewfinder/sensor dirty can send for servicing. OP ones are grey sets, anything need send back China. Servicing/cleaning for viewfinder/sensor is $40+

The price seems a big difference. Let me ping cathay and see what's the cost of a k100d body.

Check with them properly. That was supposed to be mine, but the CCD has some dust. So check with them before making a wasted trip.

My set's CCD looks clean..

Visible dust, right? The output shots look fine to me, hrm. Was testing the lens and the body itself by shooting around the shop, hee hee.

Switch to MF and take a shot in the sky. If you see alien object or patches, that's dust. But these are common when you have a DSLR

Cropped shot out of the window.

Bottom diagonal thing is houses.. :bsmilie:

lol somehow this shot works for me. What's that dark patch on the top left corner?:think:

 

[istDeS]

Test exposure against a blue sky is best using 200mm, stop down to f16 - f32, shutter speed unimportant.

Hi,

I am interested in getting the K100D kit. May I know where is OP and what do you mean by China set...does is it mean the set is for the chinese mkt? Do they just sell the body? TIA

Vince

Erm... Is it suitable to post the price here?

Got from OP today after 3 days of waiting. Got for $860 which is a China Set. A international warrenty card is being issued without stamped. But they told me if anything happen, I can bring back to them.

I also saw D40X being sold at the price of $1250... Sorry to mention Nikon here :embrass:

In addition to the 100D kit, I also got a Hoya UV filter for $8 (Cheap?)
