I asked 100/f2.8 few days ago, both Lord and MS offered SGD 730 cash

The cheapest price I saw was around 270,000Yen (around SGD 3.5K), body only. Surprisingly I saw it at Yodobashi, and that price was special for that day only. Normal price at Yodobashi/Bic Camera Yen 310000 (after 10% points discount), but you can get it cheaper somewhere else. Check kakaku.com

Yes, saw it the other day selling at Yen 69000 at Yodobashi, minus 10% points. So roughly $800. Screen is very crisp :thumbsup:

Saw 5D body in Japan selling at SGD 3.5K, strong indicator next gen of 5D is on the way :thumbsup: Btw, I would choose 5D if I could effort it

I would top up a bit more and get 17-40mm f4 L or if budget allows 17-55mm f2.8 IS

If now NETS needs to pay extra, soon banks will charge you for withdrawal from ATM :bsmilie: No joke, I know few banks in Japan did it, if you withdraw money after office hour

Agree, for such an expensive item, the delta won't justify to get the grey set. If you can pay with credit card at CP, it's even better, can collect points ;) A friend of mine just got his lense from CP and it can be paid with interest free installment using certain credit card :thumbsup:

What's the latest price for non grey set? OP quoted me today $2100 (grey set). If lense has problem, needs to send back to China. Is the price worth the risk?

I am using 350D. From the search enginee, I found there are few cases reflex mirror came off with 300D/350D. In my case, the metal bracket holding the mirror came off. As long as the mirror is not broken, it is ok. If you have to replace it, I think it could be quite expensive

Went to CSC today and the problem fixed in 5 mins and at no charge :thumbsup: Kudos to CSC for the great and friendly service

Easiest way is using dust blower. With few pumps, the dust will dissapear. It it's still there and don't affect your images, let it be. Mishap happened to me today, when I was cleaning my sensor. The metal bracket holding the reflex camera came off. I'm using Canon btw. So, handle with care...

Search in the forum, apparently cases of mirror drop off happen with 300D/350D. This is not good, hope Canon won't charge me too much fitting back the metal holder for the mirror

for 1.6x crop, Canon 10-22mm

Is it in the lense or could be the dirt on the sensor or reflex mirror? If it's the lense, I would bring back to Canon for free servicing, since it's still covered by warranty

as usual, I clean my sensor. It's not the first time I did it and so far no problem getting rid of the dust. Todaym while I was blowing the reflex mirror (not the sensor), the metal holder to the reflex camera came off. I was surprise how easy it can come off, just with the power of dust blower...

Thanks for correction, yes it's 16-50mm. Not many reviews on the net yet

According to TK, stock will arrive next week :thumbsup: , price still unknown. Price in Japan around SGD 900 :cry: In general, Tokina's build quality is better than Tamron. Additional 1mm wide + build quality and hopefully better performance than Tamron would justify the additional SGD 300...

If you want to wait a bit longer, Tokina 16-50 f2.8 should be out anytime next week (according to TK). Price unknown. Checked the Japanese sites, it's around SGD 900 :cry:

Yes, it's in the range of SGD 1.8-1.9K now
