New Low Prices

By

R0011607 (Large)

The window shopping some hours ago has almost provoked my AgIDS illness.  Just in case you’re in Hong Kong or are coming here, and have the money to burn (All in HK$/ body only):

GX200 = $3,280
GRD2 = $3,380
LX3 = $3,180
G10 = $3,280


Prices are available form a gear shop on the 1st floor of the Mongkok Computer Centre.

 

Besides these new low prices, I found that Wing Shing Photo (55-57Sai Yeung Choi St., MK Tel: 2396 6886/ 91-95 Fa Yuen St., MK  Tel: 2396 6885) is offering a Sony A700 + Carl Zeiss Lens package for HK$9,980 (hopefully, a bargain will make it some hundreds cheaper).

Check it out in the camera shop at the end of the corridor on the 1st floor of MK Computer centre. Grey market and dealer's items make a price difference of around $300 at most as I'm aware. $3,900 is way too expensive unless it is with the viewfinder.

Good luck.

BTW, a friend of mine just bought a G10 from Wing Shing for below HK$3800 with a free Canon leather case, 8G SD card (class? Dunno) and LCD protection sheet.

Hi, Anonymous. If you're a student and just into photography, wanting to learn it, you may like me use your school fee to buy a proper DSLR (a SLR in my case)rather than a compact to start with IMO :)
(The school fee part is just a plank. You shouldn't if you don't have the money)

Thank you so much for your sincere advise!Actually,i am not that much a shooting fan,i just want to rocord my life in a more fancy way,what's more ,a DSLR costs a lot .So finally i consider gx200 the perfect combination .I wont give up my dream of owning a gx200,but i won't just lazily ask for money from my parents.I can do it myself by studying hard to get scholarship.And at that time ,gx200 should be much cheaper.lol.Whatever,thank you really so much for not just support my blind passion.Thanks a lot for pointing me a better way!

Anonymous, my pleasure. Keep going. I like your positive attitude. A 2nd hand gx200 is an option if you're tight on budget.

Email me if you've further any question.

Mini Review of GRD II by Colin Bradbury

By
Today, we are going to learn some useful insights from Colin Bradbury in his mini review of the GRD II. Colin is a professional photographer stationed in Hong Kong. Photos are copyrighted to him. (St Agnes, Cornwall. 'Environmental' portrait) By COLIN BRADBURY: Just back from 2 weeks in rural England with the family over Christmas. Since this was a family holiday and not a photography trip I wanted to travel light. On that basis I left my DSLRs at home and took the GRDII as my only camera to save weight but also to see how useful it would be as the only camera in a variety of photographic situations. I have to say I was very pleased with it and didn't miss having a zoom or longer lens at all. The 28mm is a perfect single focal length and proved itself useful in a variety of situations. Landscapes are clearly well suited to the 28mm but less obviously I have also found it to be great for portraits. With a 28mm you are forced to do 2 things. First, to get in closer ...

Respite

(Ricoh GRD4) Yahoo! I found the invoice for the GRD4 and sent it to the dealer for repairing the malfunctioning manual focus, which rendered the snap mode totally useless.  I hope it will be soon for the GRD4 to be up and about.
