But I think the question is where can locksley get a good price? Hey, I am also looking for a 11-22 OR 50-200. Bulk discount anywhere?

trd2970 · 26th October 2005

I saw on yesterday's Digital Life that the E500 is priced at $1,599 with twin lens. If so, that's a bloody good deal!

You have to watch who you deal with...although some stores offer the cheapest prices, they can be a con or ripoff. Before buying from a store you never dealt with before, check with http://www.resellerratings.com Here's an example of a store with the best prices, but a lot of surprises, http://www.resellerratings.com/seller8754.html

Always getting excited when talking abt lenses. Hehe.
Its the FOV that matters leh. Maybe using it for a walkabout lens + 50-200mm as 'powerlens'.
