Happened to me too, I went to Low Yat, SG Wang, Mid Valley and quote for the price. Got a few give higher, a few give lower price, but then those lower price are out of stock. Some even said I would never find it in Low Yat.

End up I got it from LYN Forumer.

Got it for Rm1380.

FYI, you may want to look at this:
http://www.four-thirds.org/en/products/matching/index.html

A matching simulator, allow you to choose a Four Third or Micro Four Third camera and match with the lenses of either type, and see how it looks like on it.

Not sure you all know about this already, TS if can please put this at the first page share to everyone.

Hmm... still waiting for people to answer this. Anyone?

Thanks bro .. yea I've seen ur pictures before really nice.

BTW, I think GF1 can use MMF-1 / DMW-MA1 adapter for the Zuiko 70-300mm can MF and AFS as well, according to this site:
http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/dsc/connect/g1.html

Haven't tested both so not sure which will be better to my liking, the Lumix 45-200mm is m43 sure full controls, 70-300mm can reach further but need adapter.

Is there any Olympus shops allowing lens testing in PJ/KL area?

Oh hahaha this Sat, I'm going to Putra Jaya see Hot Air Balloon.

Price drop to clear stock? Hope they replace it with a better one. Looking forward to it.

Nice shot bro ... I'm going tomorrow morning, hopefully the weather is nice.

Anyone knows what's the difference between MMF1 and MMF2 ?

Actually I found people say they are the same 43 lens to m43 lens adapter, only difference is the color and built quality difference.

MMF1 - Grey and metal
MMF2 - Black but plastic ?

I'm talking about the MMF2 adapter that comes with the twice lens kit for E-PL1. Correct if I'm wrong ...

Waa ... what a con ... MMF1 is only about Rm500, which is better build right?

Ya lor, my first digital camera is Kodak EasyShare, 2nd is Canon PowerShot and now Panny Lumix. All also different menu system some menu dial at left some at right. It all depends how one get used to. But then if the menu system is hard to learn or not friendly then is too bad la. User will have hard time to play with it haha. My friend who uses Nikon D90 even said my GF1's menu and buttons are so easy to use.

Also to do candid shots, so no one can see where u are pointing exactly hahaha

Bro, I think you supposed to get a Canon EF to m43 adapter for your Canon 50mm F1.4 lens, right? Is your Canon FD or EF mount.

Wow .. seems like a lot people getting the E-PL1 + 20mm, nice street photography combo

Just got the Zuiko ED 70-300mm + MMF1 for my GF1 ... wow the lens is kinda big and solid

Can use AFS on GF1 ... lens movement can be heard, focus well and fast under good lighting.

Now I gotta find a day to go out and test test

Ya lor ... GF1 doesn't have a built-in image stabilizer, so if got OIS is a plus.

Yes, bought it new from Zappon, he is a seller in LYF.

Hey hellfire8888, you using EP1 right? Sharp coz it has built-in stabilizer. I haven't try day time shots yet, but I doubt I need 1/600 to get a nice shoot la.

Get 45-20mm for the smaller size and OIS !!

Haha ... see if it out first ... I might get the 45-200mm as well.

If I want to sell the 70-300mm tat time, I'll sure post here.
