With lens and inclusive of GST? :bigeyes:
"GRAY SET WITH WARRANTY FROM NIKON" is contradictory. Grey set means parallel import set with no local warranty... so how can it come with warranty from Nikon? Unless it means warranty from Nikon Japan... which is as good as no warranty since nobody would fly all the way to Japan to send in the camera for servicing in the first place.

If I bought a camera that I would used for four to five years, I would not go for grey set.
If cash is an issue, buy a Nikon warranty set from a reputable shop and pay with installment. Cathay Photo offer 2 years installment with 0% interest via OCBC credit card. If don't have OCBC, credit card from other bank also can but one year installment only. For your consideration.

Some reviews and wedding photos taken from DF itself ... enjoy
 

aesthetically gorgeous, but no budget.
 

Nikon interview at CP+ 2014

"Speaking of legacy lens compatibility, how well has the Df has performed for you since its release?

Very well, we’re actually back-ordered in some countries. Even in Japan, we had a tough time getting hold of enough Df samples to display here at CP+ for our visitors. If you order a Df now in Japan you’d have to wait around two months. So if you order now you’d probably end up paying 8% VAT! The Df is proving very popular, especially among the younger generation - both male and female. Older people know that the Df looks like a traditional camera, but to young people the design is completely new and fresh. Even internally there was some debate about how the concept of this camera should be positioned in the market but it turned out very well."

:vhappy:

Yesterday morning I was doing a field trip at Sungei Buloh WR with office colleagues so I took out my good old D300 + MB-D10 + 80-200 AFD + 2x Kenko. Then in the afternoon I was out at Serangoon NEX for another function, this time kiddo's school charity event Sharing Spree, and I brought Df + 80-200 AFD + 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 non-VR.

And I understood what reviewers said about how unbalanced the Df felt with heavy lenses, even though deep in me I knew that I should be using my left hand to support the lens just as in the good old (film) days.

Sigh ... on the one hand we clamor for smaller and lighter DSLR, then when one comes along we complain that it is not big and heavy enough...

Anyway the Df has not ceased to amaze me with its high ISO performance, especially after shooting with D300.

And the good old non-VR 24-85 performs quite well.
 

I am not happy with the balance of the D800E and 70-200mm f/2.8 too as I can't comfortably hold it with 2 fingers and shoot. Why can't Nikon design the D800E such that I can hold the camera that way. What a lousy camera ! :what:
