Visit KATA website and found out bags sold here listed at

SENSYS SINGAPORE PTE LTD
A Professional Audio Video System Integration Company
Singapore, 50 Bukit Batok Street 23 - Midview Building #03-05 659578
Tel : 65 6896 6636

Don't know if this is outdated or not though.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

I did contact them before, they only carry video bags. OP has stock for Kata, just received notice from them.

OP's quote for KATA 3N1-20 is $199!

A bit steep!

shadowtw · 14th June 2009

Ya!!!! They told me its $155 in the email and when they had stock, I confirm with them on phone and was told it is still $155, then when I wanted to buy it, it becomes $199.... same thing for lens..

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.

last week when i was there . there's is a 10% off if u play nets or cash.. but ya.. $199 a bit ex sia...

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.

Grey Knight · 19th June 2009

woah.
the prices wnt up by so much 0.o

i got my DB455 previously for 90 bucks now 145 0.o

thedaniel · 19th June 2009

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.

Cartman2000 · 19th June 2009

I'd rather buy from Amazon. 3N1-20 going for US75+(18 SGD) now.
