Don't know if this is outdated or not though. Didn't find any kata products on their website.

Guys, thanks for telling vector magnetics is taking the distribution rights of KATA. I just went to their site, it listed it's as $199. Another good thing is they also selling 3N1 Tripod Holder at S$29. I was trying to look for it's Tripod Holder very badly and I thought I can't have it in Singapore. Feel so so relieve that I can buy it here.

http://www.vector-magnetics.com/kata.html

Gonna get it today!

It's very strange that the DR-4xx series is cheaper than the 3N1 series when it's supposed to be the opposite. Was looking to get a 3N1-20 until they quoted me the insane price, so decided to get a DR-466 instead. Even their sensitivity is ridiculous at 199, when I only paid less than 150 for it 2 years ago.

I think K-13 camera shop at Peninsular Plaza also has wide range of Kata bag choices.

They don't at the moment. They haven't restocked yet, and also don't seem to be aware Vector is now distroing this brand.

The Vector Magnetics website specified that

3n1-20 is S$236
3n1-30 is S$299

Is this because Kata raise the price or because Vector Magnetics thinks that Photographers are all carrot?

Which oversea online site delivers to Singapore?
If really no choice, have to go to Lowepro.
