Hi,

I guess someone posted before but i think the thread no longer available. May i know any shops in Ho chi Minh and Hanoi carry pentax lenses?

i will be in HCM for nearly 3 weeks in this coming week so I am curious how much they price the lenses there

I am aware there is a distributor in Vietnam located in HCM responsible for distributing lenses and camera:

Tixiai is well known in HCMC for Pentax, most Pentaxian in HCMC knew them. www.xomnhiepanh.com is a very good forum to buy second hand lens, but in Vietnamese. It is also cheaper than Singapore if buying 2nd hand ones, example, I can find good 35ltd look like new for around $500 here, or 70ltd for $450 (not many for sale though). Especially the MF lens and those M42, there are many many good ones here for cheap, I meant, CHEAP!

Lastly, if you look to buy brandnew, then Vietnam is NOT a good place to buy. But if you come to HCMC and look for 2nd hand lens, I can help you out with Vietnamese - English translation from the forum, or help you to search and arrange the seller.
