the price is between $2.6+K - $2.7+K
i got mine from Lords...u can get it from most dealers in Singapore...do call them and check for stocks or just head down to your favourite dealer and get them before they run out of stock.

price is just the body itself inclusive of 7% GST...do note that its CASH price...when u pay by nets or credit card, the price probably is subject to another 1-3% more...do check with your dealer.

Maybe u can ask to see if you can bundle it with any lens for a "special" price. If u dun ask u'll never know wat u can get. All the best

Thanks for your post Lumiere, its very tempting, the ISO i mean

[ZeroDivine]

hrm the last pic looks good
but iso 3200 and 1600 for the room shot, I feel the colour balance(WB?) is slightly colder than the iso1000 which is quite warm.
Wonder if it is same WB , or the higher ISo cause them to lose the DR hence perceived 'muted colour'?

WB was set to Auto...and at higher ISOs alot of details are lost too

Cool...thanks for your help...anyway do you know any shop that trade in old camera and for a new camera? hehe

[Jaevus]

considering its 12megapixels on a DX CCD... PWAH!! the ISO1600 is solid enough for me. and if I'm not wrong the D300's price is a tad cheaper than what the D200 was retailing for when it's new... a bargain for the amount of camera you get i think? thanks for the pics! *very poisonous*
