Thanks!!

I thought the white version is not available in Singapore as well? So you got the white version @ Cathay Photo @ the price you listed?

This guy is selling at LYF >> http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1199704

If not; fly-in-fly-out to Singapore, with the tax rebate you'll cover the flight ticket** (weekdays airasia) and get the camera similarly priced to KL. Cathay Photo is the best priced S$1261 for 20mm + option to buy 14-45mm @ S$186 (all subject to 7%GST) Just got mine from SG last week, tired of waiting.

price is so high, outside is selling below Rm3k for new set but bidders get the convention units for RM3200.

Compare to previous fake rumours, this real E-P1 spec is not really big upgrade
from E-P1....

Let's see:

12 Megapixel - E-P1 got
3fps - not really useful if E-P2 AF still slow
stereo sound - E-P1 got
AF tracking - How affective? Not really used all the time also.
1.44 million dot electronic viewfinder with 100% field of view - ok, some people who keep on asking for EVF will get their wish
8 Art Filters (two more than the E-P1 ….. Diorama Filter and Cross Process) - can this upgraded with firmware for E-P1?
i-Enhance function (color boost) - can this be upgrade also... also, both this feature is software based... can do it with PC...
230K LCD - E-P1 got
X1/180 - not sure...

So what big upgrade? I don't see any big upgrade also...

I'll think big upgrade will be very very fast AF and higher resolution LCD, AF assist, internal flash...

But unfortunately, E-P2 biggest upgrade is EVF and 3fps...

Not really interested in E-P2. Since not much different with the E-P1.

I'm still waiting for GF-1 hit the Malaysia market. I still can't see it nowhere in any camera shop in KL.

That's weird... check few post before this... they said they can find it in certain shops...
And miyamondo.com , ebay etc... why not check those out...

And furthermore, you can give panasonic a call... its really easy to buy a camera i think... just need
to do some calling and fork out the cash baby.. haha..
