Hi Seasonizer, I'm in Darwin but I cannot see why it would not apply to people in Singapore.
I bought my FZ28 through Ebay. It arrived in 4 days from Hong Kong and I paid $A558 (including postage) compared to $A800 from a major distributor who did not have any in stock but could get one in two weeks.
FZ28 included panasonic bag (small), UV filfer, second battery, 2GB ultra SD card and card reader, lens hood and adaptor, neck strap, screen protector,tripod and all leads, maual and software CD.
I'm very happy with the service provided and what I consider a good price about S$642

Cheers clunk

Hi Seasonizer, the people I delt with have a Office in Sydney but they only had silver FZ28 and I wanted black so it came from Hong Kong, so I got 12 months warranty in Oz. Some site offer international warranty. I know what you mean, I worry about buying things in Singapore and I live and work in Darwin. Check out Singapore ebay.sg and ebay.au
Dun hurt to look lah.

FZ28
Having fun getting used to new camera, so many functions.
How do I go about inserting pic to post rather than link, where can I find thread to do so?

hey guys, thinking to get this too.

However, are there other cameras to compare to with similar specs?

Also, Went to shop and guy told me to buy Uv filter to protect lens, spare battery, and cleaner all these add $100. Are these necessary?
