Where to buy Canon and Manfrotto gear in Singapore?

[chrisatyen]

Hi guys,

Where is the best place to get Canon, Manfrotto and other video gear in Singapore? I'm from Sydney and will be passing through for only 2days.

Anyone know the current price of the Canon XM2's and 501HDV Fluid Head, 351MVB2 Tripod, and 350SPRB Mid-Level Spreader's?

Thank you for any help

Usually its better to call them and quote the items you'd like to buy. And then go over to the shop and ask again. If they quote higher, tell them you were quoted a lower
price over the phone.

Give me a ring when you're in town, +65 9635zero447.
I will link you up with Manfrotto video tripod dealers.

Cathay don't sell VIDEO tripods and even if they're WILLING to take your order, it will take AGES to get stock! And not exactly at a good pricing too!

FYI, 350SPRB mid lvl spreaders are not in stock islandwide.

Normally the dealer here configure for 501HDV with 525P (3 stage) tripod as a kit.
I had lots of difficulty trying to order for a 503HDV with a 2-stage CF tripod, so ended up getting an alternative.
