Re: lens price in japan
personelly, sg is cheaper. Went there last month but got nothing back. In the end, spend locally.

Re: lens price in japan
Now, Japanese Yen is extremely high so, Singapore is probably cheaper.
100¥ = 1.58$S

Re: lens price in japan
Yes, as what other as mentioned...
YEN is super strong now...and SIN $ is getting weak now... So still better to get it in SG.... For the Speedlight 580EX II is cost abt Yen58000. after convert to SIN do you think is still cheap??
