Price drop for Kx Body/Kit/200mm/300mm lens kit :)


I think you are severely underestimating the demand for the 50-200mm DA-L lens, considering someone just offered to buy it off you :D
Not buy from me leh. See properly lah, its lanxer.

Anyway my gf wants white or red, so no dual lens kit I supposed.

Hah... in any case if you're planning to buy a black single kit, I'm sure there will be people who will be willing to work something out with you to get a 50-200mm DA-L

But ya, not quite an option if you have to get white or red.
Score some points with your GF, then buy a K-7 for yourself :D

LOL, i dun tink so lah, I already have a Canon 50D plus a big investment in 24-105L lens, so sexpensive already.

But saw from price list that DA 55-300mm is listed as $499, so kx 18-55mm is 782 + 499 = 1281, see SLR revo can give a bit of discount or not lor.

Hi Pentax pros, My gf considering the dual lens kit with the 55-300mm lens.

Is the 55-300mm lens ok in image quality? Or is it better to go with 50-200mm?

Anybody know whats the latest price for the 2 dual kit lens in SLR revo?

Hi all, I just went down to SLR Revolution this afternoon.
Was quoted 899 (cash) without freebies for dual lens kit 18-55mm + 50-200mm (inclusive of gst).

Cosmetically, the DAL lenses that came with the package doesn't look as nice as my original kit lens on my K10D. The DAL lenses seem abit too plasticky to me. =(

Other than that, I have no complains. Both lenses gave me great pictures.
Hope that helps.
 

still very undecided if i should go for the dual lens ?
i wonder if new timer DSLR will buy dual lens ?

or single lens and try out first.

But according to some advice , additional 100 or so for another lens for the DAL 5-200 is quite a good deal not to be missed.

Yes, I'd definitely recommend going for the dual lens kit unless you want a red/white/blue body.
You WILL find a use for the 50-200mm, and this is a great deal. Considering if you buy a Canon or Nikon system you have to top up like $300 to get their 55-200mm.

It's definitely a good deal to get the 2nd lens for that price.
I'm enjoying my DA 50-200mm inclusive of original hood:)

So if I want to get a white body, I cannot go for the dual lens kit ??

CONFIRMED.
If dual lens.. only BLACK colour.

single lens , you can get white,red or blue!
 

Yah, $100+ for the lens is really a bargain. In my view, the only reason not to get it is this -- if you are very sure that you won't need that range now, and in future if you do need that range you are very sure that you will buy either a better zoom or are going prime.

FWIW, there are people buying black single kits, but not many I suppose.
 

Wa lau, SLR Revo open so late.

Anybody know what colours Singapore have? Japan has 20 colours. Singapore only has red, white, blue and black?

Yep, and be thankful for that. Non-JP market was supposed to only receive black and white versions. Thanks to Emjay, we have more choices. :cool:
 

LOL i guess beggers can't be choosers cos our market so small.

Japan has 20 body colours plus 7 grip colours, but only 5 colours available for each body, so 100 choices.
