[ Opinion ] - Will You Buy The Olympus E-5?

[Alphonse]

Alphonse:
Did you buy the E5 at $2150 nett, incl of GST? Was it part of any package, or just the body alone?

If yes to all, that is a very good price. I did not know of this price, and bought mine at the standard $2298.

No package, body alone. $2150 nett with GST. However cash only... ... nets got some percentage (i think 1%) and credit card got some percentage (i think is 3%). That time I waited almost an hour to get my camera (John 3:16 guys was serving a lot of guys) that's why he(samuel) feel guity and absorb the percentage for my $250 balance on the credit card. Kudos to his service.

Cheers to you also. No additional package. However if you want extra freebies, I was quoted by MS Colour $2200 body plus a 8GB card(I suppose is the normal SD card). If you want that you can go to MS Colour. ;p

Forgive me if I am wrong...I just wanted to clear this info that most people have regarding new oly 4/3 camera which I think are mostly rumours. I am not sure why people keep saying that Oly is going to stop making 4/3 camera's. One of the video of a German Reporter on Youtube taking to Oly head (during E'5 launch) said that (sorry i lost the link) , they dont have any plans of stopping making cameras for 4/3 not until the m4/3 lenses and cameras reaches the standard set by 4/3...So i think there is still a long way to go.. and E5 def is their best camera to date..:thumbsup:
