Official Canon 550D User Thread Part II

I think you guys should go straight to shops and check out the price, find out the freebies and best price. Then shortlist which shop is the cheapest.

I can tell you that I bought my 550D w/ 18-135 & Nissin Di622 for $1600. You can try calling shops like CP, OP, AP... They can quote you a very good price on the phone, but when you go down, they might tell you a different story like you have to buy additional stuffs and accessories.

wah thats freaking cheap! means u paid ~$1400 for ur 550D Kit 2

where and when is the outing and what will we be taking? portrait or landscape? i juz got a flash and interested to learn more abt portrait thx

A decent Hoya HMC or Tokina UV would be good enough, but if you don't have a budget, get a B+W filter.

The HD filter stands for High Density.

I gather names for you, you organise :embrass:

Cos i'm not sure where to go, since you've been to many outings! :bsmilie:

 

[blueacidic]

soons : join the outing and teach all of us

Where can we buy the cheapest Canon 550D in singapore? ((EOS 550D Kit II (EF S18-135IS) $ 1,799 advertised on website))

oh... just normal UV filter will do...
but what is the different between muilt coat and normal

If you put uncoated filter on your lens you will get reflections from lights and bright spots.

warranty not covered? anyway that time can't remember, did u say warranty covers repairing shutter? lets say if shutter count 'dies' off and still under warranty?

Yeap, cos' I know the boss of AP. But can't go back to AP cos' there isn't a wide range of accessories.

[defelio]

No la. Dead pixel on LCD, is not the CMOS sensor mah.

Your LCD monitor got dead pixel doesn't mean the media is spoil right.

Don't worry =)

[Odyssey-Boy]

lets say a walkabout around the city area, and since we are all using the same camera body, we can drop by a cafe for kopi, chit chat or so.. share opinions..

 

[nomatter]
