The store is inside the transit area. Hence the price should be exclusive of GST for all departing passengers.

Ic.. How about the one outside in T3? They also have GST reduction...

No idea about that one. But I doubt it would be cheaper than what you find at the usual shops at Funan etc.

For that I am agree with you...

If it's the price written in the price tag it does include GST, they will deduct it if you qualify.

Haha! You'd be surprised... I mean, not for the high end models, but there may be some nice surprises...

Plus, you get to collect all 6 angry birds plush toys... And a good number of Changi Reward Points... Haha!

Well if you are right then the price is pretty good at Changi for departing passengers! Can't remember the actual price tag but it was the lower end of $27xx.

Just got my 6D from Click! today and match it with the 24-70mm f2.8 M2. This will be my indoor camera for my twin boys and I am very impress with the high ISO and auto focus. No problem in capturing good photos of my super active under 4 years old boys!

All price tags at Changi airport show the price including GST. I just learned that a few months ago because I never asked the staff, I always thought the prices there are inflated. Best example is the Sony store there but the same goes for any other store. I think in order to qualify your total bill needs to be over ~$30 or something like that. So for all the small stuff you pay GST.

Bro did u try it in low light? How was the AF performance?

 

[raymondloh]

tried it in my bedroom with all lights off. The only light source is the TV. Using center point focus it achieve lock when the subject is approx 1.5 meters away from the TV.

Must shoot like Eason type.. then can see the power of 6d... .

 

[raymondloh]

so....?.....as long as it is good enough for me......why compare with other camera. The main reason that i buy is for the high ISO quality.

My other cam is 500D and 1D mk IIn, hence it is a change to use all the way up to iso25600. Previously it is i will be hesitance to bump it to 1600iso

ok la, i guess what he meant was the subject was lit up by the light from the TV. :bsmilie:

 

[raymondloh]

Yes this is correct. :embrass: The subject is my boy whom is watching the TV.

Any camera can lock on to a powered on TV.

Hi all, insider news 6D price has dropped by a few dollars
lynn

This comes from Canon Sg? Probably in anticipation of Nikon's massive price cut on 15-Dec-2012.
