yup..i normally place the camera upside down in that clamcase...feels it fits better that way and i can easily access the SD card if i need to without having to remove the camera.
anyway...got the retro-looking leather case (one u see in ebay)..a friend bought it from HK..
hey this retro-looking case can fit a LX3 fitted with the ricoh LC-1 lens cap?
hmm..the LC1 have some (3) tabs at the side right? not sure if there is enough room from the lens cover on the retro case. could be pretty tight. where and how much u got the LC1?
pix from mobile camera..;p

quite a good deal if they had given you a class 6 SDHC card. most places only give class 2.

I agree thats why I list it clearly as Class 6 SD Card. Quality freebies vs Quantity freebies
i just got my LX3 from AP SLS!
big thank you to those who've helped me!
the bundle i got includes :
-3rd party batt
-mini tripod
-card reader
-8 gb kingston card
-screen protector
and also, i got the black hard casing for $19.
so total, i payed $680 + $19 = $699
and i did call AP before going down, and requested for bryan.
during my purchase at AP with bryan, my gf and i were impressed by his excellent service!
he's very patient, and answered my questions, and even taught me how to use the cam.
:thumbsup:for bryan of AP sls!
got my LX3 from bryan today too. I must say that he is one of the best salesman I had encountered in AP SLS.
the bundle i got includes :
-3rd party batt
-mini tripod
-card reader
-8 gb kingston card (class 4)
-screen protector
-Panasonic clam case
Price: $680 w/gst (cash)
Bryan was patient throughout the entire purchase process. The first set of LX3 he showed me had some dust inside the lens. I requested to see a second set. Although he had put in the SD card and the batt, he readily repacked everything back into the box and showed me a 2nd set. This is really good customer service.
After I checked and confirmed that everything is ok with the 2nd set, he demo the functions of the LX3 and help me install the screen protector. :thumbsup:
I wanted to buy a 16GB SD card but he advised that I should use the 8GB first and buy additional only if its not enough. Another plus point and this distinguishes him from other salesman that pushes you to buy useless accessories.
PS: I also realised that the LX3 batt is the same as my 5 year old Lumix FX9. Talk about backward compatibility for Panasonic! :thumbsup: Now I got 2 chargers and 4 batts!

Shucks need to get a card reader to upload pics. Dun wan the hassle of USB wires.
Any idea how much it costs?

last price i know is 4 bucks at sitex...
Do buy a good one.
Cause I bought a cheap multi-card reader (USB 2.0), the transfer speed is only 1 MB/s...
Now Need to get another one.
Yes please get a good one, preferably from Sandisk or Lexar. Tried on a cheap card reader and the pics came out wonky. Transfer speed is not too big an issue for the LX3 unless you always shoot in RAW or have a very large SD card.
At least yours not so bad. I've heard of some who had their card fried becos of dodgy cheapo card readers.
Wah! thanx for the heads-up!
