Shops selling lens at Incheon Airport?

[gnohz]

Hi all,

I'll be going to Korea next week and thinking of getting a lens at the airport before starting my trip :bsmilie:
I'm aware that there're more shops in nandaemun but that'll be later in the trip and I don't think I can wait till then ;p

Does anyone know if there're any shops selling Nikon lens inside the airport? Are they around the same price as SG or cheaper? I found some threads about this but they only mentioned camera sets and not lens...

Thanks to anyone who can provide some info

Just came back from Korea. I did not notice abt lens, but there are many shops in Nandamen selling camera stuff all in a single row.

Remeber to bring cash, else its +5% for using credit card. Generally they sell lower than the Canon retail price. Chk the korea website more making your purchase.

I see
I will be going there but that will be later on in the trip so I'm thinking of buying a lens at the Incheon Airport before starting out on the trip ;p

Anyone knows?

Yes, there are duty free shops in Incheon Airport. Greater selections for Canon than Nikon/Samsung/Olympus. For canon they carry L and non-L lenses. To be specific there are two camera duty free shops, one near gate 40-ish and the other near 102. The one near gate 102 offers 5% discount plus another 5% for Mastercard.

I found them to be cheaper than Singapore.

Hi wong9034,
Thanks so much for the info as I'll be flying off tomorrow. I'll be sure to check out both shops
Hope I'll be able to find what I want there! :sweat:

never noticed but the selection is very limited at the airport. Besides, the duty free will only be available on your way out. When you arrive at incheon u will be whisked out of the terminal liao. Yr best bet is still Naedaemum.
