wow they have D700 and D3 for testing? Canon Singapore doesn't even display 5D2 and 1D/1Ds bodies on the shelves; they say one needs to make an appointment to test out the "pro" bodies.

somehow I disagree on this. The 5D2 and 1-bodies are meant for experienced photographers and it should be kept out of reach for average joes. They know most people can't affored to own one so it is wise not to put these models on display and let the public abuse it.

Say Nikon D700 and D3 on display... how many would buy any after firing thousands of shutter counts? 1 out of 10,000?  Sooner or later Nikon Center gonna put D3 and D700 in cabinets  , testing is by request only.

Hehehe I fired quite a number when I tested the D3 last time when it was first launched

I think D3 shutter count limit is 300k. I seriously doubt I'll even use until 100k before I upgrade the body.

Nikon event this weekend? Will go look see look see if got time.

Aiyah I should have taken the Launch Itinerary and scan for everyone.

I remember vaguely got demos, tutorial sessions, etc. and model shoot. In true 1malaysia style

Day 1: Baju Kurung
Day 2: Sari
Day 3: Cheongsam

Something like that. I think congratulations to the folks who brought this Centre to life. My fav is looking at all the line up of cameras, both digital and non digital. From the days of D100 to D300s, D1 to D3, also got the D40/50/60/70/80/90 as well as the older fav like FM2, F3, F4, F5, F6. Worth going to see. I was there at 10am and I had uninhibited and uninterrupted access to all the new toys. I can tell you i works having those toys there. My first time playing with D700 and now I seriously considering upgrade from my D300. Of course no one would be silly enough to buy from there, but hey at the end of the day Nikon wins coz someone is buying Nikon from some other dealer. That's why this is a showroom ma, to showcase their stuff where most dealers wont even let orinary people touch one. Or they let their fren fren photog touch only. It's ok to aspire and dream mah and the dream starts at the Nikon centre lorr. btw i dont work for Nikon, i'm only a huge fan.
