Default Olympus E-300 Price in SG

Hello all,

having recently bought an E-300 from singapore @ a good price,
with reasonably good freebies. Am a newbie to DSLR. somewhere
in one of threads here I read that Alan photo trading in SIMLIM
square is offering it in good price and SAM is the guy to be contacted.
(Thanks a lot to whoever posted that..

bought E-300 + kit Lens + 1 GB cf card 2 nos + Olympus Pro Bag + UV filter
for SGD1650. I think it's a good price. I hope to explore more with all
you folks.

As for the adapter ring, i wrote to Olympus USA and Olympus SG for
the free issue of it. I ain't got any replies from USA. Oly SG says it
to be S$109. Has anyone got any replies from OLY sg favoring the free
issue to it's recent customers..? I have got replies from few other
American and EU customers with free issued adapter rings..!


cheers & happy shooting,
adal

Hi, do you mean 2 pieces of 1 GB cf? 1 piece from the shop and 1 piece to claim from Olympus office?

Also how is the Olympus Pro Bag looks like?

Dear All,

The Olympus bag is actually a rebadged Lowe Pro photog bag. It was originally designed for use with the E1 & basic assortment of lenses with facilities for easy access to the various compartments, hence it is it little large for the E300. Nikon also rebadges Domke / Saffroto (?) bags.

Rgds,

The Adaptor Ring is for mounting the old OM Olympus lens on this new digital camera.

So if that bag is too biiiiiiiigggggggggggggggg., what is a better choice then? Say one E300 + Kit Len + 40-150 Oly len + FL36?
