Where to buy LX3

[Anson]

lol, thank you

Abit curious... how was the sales of the LX3 during the IT Show'09? Is it selling like hot cakes?

nublx3, did you go down to MS Color with an e-quote?

I called AP and they said stock for the black version will only arrive next Wed-Thurs, and the freebies will only include the card and case at $685. Might as well go to MS! So I'm wondering if I can just drop by tomorrow afternoon. I hope MS has the black version!

Lots people try and look for it. erm, average 1 day around 20 sets. mainly is those people who don't know about outside dealer's price. also have those who don't mind paying $40 or more comparing with outside dealers and get in the show as they were already there.

Got my LX3 earlier in the afternoon for $690(Cash) @ MS.

Plastick, stock for the black version is still available? And the MS color package comes with cf card, battery and screen protector right?

I need to get this since I can't be bothered to bring my DSLR for travels, heh. But they have yet to reply to my e-quote.

CF Card? LX3 uses SD/SDHC... why would MSC give CF card? :dunno:

 

[christysg]

Oops...I stated the wrong thing lah. Heh.

How much did you paid for LX3? If they give the same freebie as APSL and price at $679, will go there to buy since APSL have to wait.

anyone knows whether the hotshoe cover is in stock?

 

[christysg]

By the way, has anyone tried fitting the LX3 into the Lomo L-case? It looks utterly delicious!

You can use any (beside sony) hotshoe cover... which is very cheap....

Anyone using the Richard Franiec's custom hot shoe cover for LX3?
