Really depends.. normally i check out Alan Photo but u got to be careful there.. sometimes the experience can be good or bad. Depends on the sales person. Better to check around b4 committing, esp in SLS. Most impt thing is dun fall for the "i have no stock, y dun u consider X brand?" trick.

hi

Yes I was at Alan PHoto. Got an offer of wide angle adaptor at $80 bucks for camcorder ( 30mm ) .
Made of glass ( china brand ) is that the average price ? didnt get to see other shops.....


Orient photos sells Sony miniDV tapes at $3/pc No minimum.
Got an extend battery from them ( no brand ) for $40 bucks.
Pretty happy with that.

Orient photo is 6th level SimLim Square.


still looking for a wide angle adaptor

Hi,

I got myself a Canon HV30 and had difficulty getting a wide angle adaptor.

Canon's original is heavy and hard to find in the stores. And it has bad barrel distortion.

You might want to check out Raynox. There's a chap selling it direct and he advertises on clubsnap as well: http://www.mcgill.com.sg/shop/defaul...e1d9520e4f2c12

Rgds,

MW
