[ Vanity ] Olympus EM-5 accessories thread

[theITguy]

Was at Tin Cheung just now. Grip is not available. Somehow they do not carry the stock. They say need to wait one month. Instead bought a Hadley Small Black to complement my EM-5.

What is the price of the grip in SG again? I go Sim City check it out.

Bought the FL600R flash and HLD-6 grip at HKD2490 and HKD1990 respectively. Payable by credit card. Last piece of the grip and second last for flash. Flash is really small.

Got a bln-1 in seoul for 70k won (60usd).

Asked a number of shops (nandaemun) and only 3 of them has it. Whew. I find myself lucky as I didnt have plans getting them there but the battery wont last long for me and goes out in the afternoon (esp. When i leave the camera on, batt gets drained quickly).

The shop where i bought has the website Lowepro.co.kr posted in the signage.

Really want to get back there and check some accessories, but no time.

I thought Amazon JP don't ship to Singapore for OMD Battery purchase. I tried it last week without success. How did you manage it? What was the additional shipping cost for all your items?

Do send me a PM if it's sensitive.

Cheers on your new toys.

The reason why they don't is because Japan Post does not allow Lithium Ion batteries to be shipped.
If you can use another shipper, then it's usually ok.

When I shipped my OM-D from Amazon Japan, I also had this problem.
What I did was to ship to Rakuten (forwarding company). Then they changed the shipping from Japan Post to UPS. You need pay more but it will be shipped.

Can this be considered an accessory?

BTW, love your images taken with the OMD E-M5. Cheers.
