Shierly, i think the original one is the most lasting one lehz... heee...

The cheap 25 dollars one comes in a blue box with the word Digital one it. Hold slightly less charge. Can be bought from Alan Photo at both Sim Lim Square or Funan. If they quote you a higher price, insisted that all your frens got it @ 25.

East Gear is located at Pennesular Plaza, 02-02 i think, sell eastgear oem batteries. Nowadays alot of shops oso carry Eastgear batteries too. Retail price is at 34.95 but i heard got pple bargain to 27...

They have a website too, so you can go there to check out the batts and how much they cost.

If you go to Alan Photo, request for Anthony. His quoted prices are the best in the shop and he's really friendly. I just got my 1GB Lexar 80X CF card from him today at a good price. Even lower than the Mass Order conducted recently.

Hi gang,

I second the OEM batteries from Eastgear. Initially, i bought an OEM battery from AP when I got my FZ20. The voltage was a bit higher (7.4V) as compared to the original panasonic batt of 7.2V but this is still all right since they have the same current output (680mAh).

Lately i got the OEM batt from Eastgear during their IT fair. Their voltage is still 7.4V but with a current of 980mAh. So this should mean a longer lasting battery to suit your shooting needs. So far, i'm very satisfied with it!

If you want to consider FZ10, maybe you can visit the best denki at junction 8, selling at incredible $699 with GST! Just that it don't give so many free gifts (only camera bag)

Consider the different bet FZ 10 and 20 is probably the resolution (1mp) and the Venus engine, u save about $500, use that money to buy on the rest of the accessory!

The FZ20 is price at $1099 at the IT Show with the below freebies:

2 X 256MB SD Card
Big Tripod
Carrier Bag
CGA S002 Battery
1 + 2 year Extended Warranty.

Compare to shop like MS Color $912 (free 1 256MB SD & case),
will be paying $187 for a 256MB SD, Big Tripod, CGA batt &
2 year extended warranty in the show, worth?
Thanks.
