i happy for awhile when i saw this post.
Thought finally can get my camera... but after call SLRR then realise only Body and Kit1 available.. :cry:

MS also no stocks... ParisSilk yes but not sure how reliable are them. Coz remember reading in other threads that they quote 1 price over the phone and it changes when you go to the shop.. somemore 2 branches quote different prices..

rean, thanks. but somehow i dun feel very excited. its like some necessity now. lol! nope didnt ask abt spare batts. but i asked abt grips and CP and SLR revo said they haven't receive the shipment.

jovian, try cathay. i called them....got a quote from them via email for $1,107 incl gst and cash payment. but that's body only. they have stocks, im sure. =)

anyway guys, when i went home, on the way i saw a lot of ppl with xxxD bodies...sian. it's like the popular nokia phones of the past. haha! its amazing to see how those ppl use the camera in very funny fashion like walking and snapping at the same time, going super close their fren's face and den ask "why can't focus?"...but oh well, this is a consumer market. miss my 50D, wish i cld stick with it, but i feel there's no pt using it with a kit lens as i've sold my expensive lenses away to fund my studies. oh well...this is life.

No more. Now give a normal EOS bag that can change to TOTE bag iirc.
