    Shockproof,water proof like Panasonic ,Olmpus and Nikon..PnS?

    Lumix FT4 is selling at Cathay for $560 FT3 still available at MS for $399. Anyone know of a better price? It seems there's hardly enough feature upgrades to the FT4 to warrant the higher price. Any opinions?

    Shockproof,water proof like Panasonic ,Olmpus and Nikon..PnS?

    I was just wondering the same thing. What are the pros and cons of GoPro vs a waterproof camera like the Lumix. I know the gopro is made with the purpose of shooting video first and stills second, but it does seem very versatile given that it can be mounted. Apparently it has 170 deg angle...

    Buying a 30D + 17-85IS lens from Japan

    Hmm.... yeah, asked my friend to check if there's warranty. Guess i'll take your word for it since you've bought it from there. Guess most new cams don't break down within the 1st year right? Someone tell me if i'm mistaken. I guess saving the money might be worth the risk.

    Buying a 30D + 17-85IS lens from Japan

    Jaix, you're spot on. Thats the one that my friend found for me. So S$2500 is a good price right? Have you bought from Japan before. I'm wondering about the battery charger. Since Japan uses a different plug-head, i will need to get an adapter for the charger. Does anyone know whether...

    Buying a 30D + 17-85IS lens from Japan

    I got a friend who's able to buy the 30D plus 17-85 IS lens for me from Japan. The price is very good compared to Singapore. In Sgp, i believe it's still $2250 for body + $1000 for the lens right? Can someone verify this? I've already checked that Canon Singapore will honour the Int'...

    Film SLR purchase recently anyone?

    I've started out with a Canon 500N 6years back, and recently added a Mamiya 7ii MF cam to the stable. I'm now looking for a small compact digital P&S cam to complete my "arsenal". Not going to DSLR as yet, unless something really compelling happens - like if Kodak and Ilford stop producing film.

    Girl 2

    Great shot. I think the composition is spot on. More importantly you got the "moment-in-time" expression on her face that cannot be replicated. I won't argue about tones,etc as that is too subjective for me to comment. My 5 cents on this is that this is the type of defining moments we...

    Do you own 2 camera systems?

    Well i think the post was for CSers who own 2 systems and not 2 Full Systems. A system is a system right? :think: A full range of lens is also subjective. If my interests don't lie in sports or nature, i may not need a long telephoto. Sorry about ranting....no offence meant. :what:
