Seems that A350 is cheaper now....

[mysilentkaopei]

slowly but surely... you will start to let go of the canon... muahahahaha

Which online shop to look at? and you guys OK to get with warranty since for body it is local.

Bro,

Me no expert on HK shops but after some homework, settled on this shop. I'd say they are like MS here. Quote one good price, no more bargaining, good service.

If you visit the Mongkok Sai Yeung Choi St outlet, Sonystyle HK is just two doors away for you to convert your lens warranty from HK's to Singapore's.

Good luck!

But .... seems like you already took the plunge! Welcome to the friendly side!

I from Canon camp mah...all equipt Canon...thinking of this as 2nd Cam....

thought usually second cam is from the same brand? if not how to mount your other lenses?

i was looking at some online comparison of images taken with the A350 and its competitors. i think that the extra 4mpx resolution is actually quite noticeable :thumbsup: but its also a bit noisier at higher iso (>1600) :thumbsd:

so, see which one you like la! =)

so lesser noise for A300 at higher iso for its lower mpx sensor?

yup i would believe myself to be assuming so :b

 

[mysilentkaopei]

note the slight difference in the burst count as well... 2.5fps vs 3fps from the 300...

i'm getting 300 cuz the money jump (200 dollars) to me abit no point...

Just wanted to try out Sony as they seems to be taking this industry by storm within a short time...will have to do with having diff lens mount...

visited MScolor today with my friend

Price for A200 kit-999, A300 kit-1150, A350 body-1150 all inclusive of GST and freebies as stated on sony website...

 

[dr34mc4st3r]

The A300 kit looks the best for beginners!

[Rashkae]

That's because of live view.

Thats a gd price isn't it? You sure its the a350 kit? Cos sony shops selling it for 1399. 1175 even with gst is only 1257+

 

[mysilentkaopei]

yen la dei... 1175 body nia... 1399 from sony is with kit lens

 

[ahwoon]

A300 is a more attractive option, it's at a price of $200 cheaper then the A350 for s'pore retail price.

Now I'm thinking whether I should buy from HK, the price of A300/ A350 (with 1 kit lens) is abt S$930/990 after conversion. The downside is w/o warranty in s'pore.

 

[mysilentkaopei]

bro, change in currency rate liao. a300 kit lens is about 907. I just did the latest update
