QUOTE(oHkereD @ Oct 27 2010, 07:02 AM) haha, i bought that, Transcend 8gb Class10. work perfectly fine. I thought of shipping a SD card from M'sia cause UK here SD card so damn expensive, as in outlet retail price, 8gb 40 pounds, i was like wth. until i saw this Transcend in amazon, i straight purchase even without thinking twice. Even cheaper than malaysia price i presume. lol Yes.. This is definitely cheaper than Malaysia... 9pounds - RM45 can get you a 8gb Class 4 only in LYP... I bought my Transcend 4gb Class 6 in LYP for Rm39..... I guess higher class memory cards are still not the market for most Malaysians except Photographers... Pendrives and Portable HDD's are cheaper in Malaysia... |

QUOTE(Anly @ Oct 27 2010, 08:53 AM) are you guys all currently in uk??? class 10 8gb sd card with only rm45 is really cheap.. i saw cheapest is rm89 if i not mistaken.. too bad after adding the delivery charges from uk to msia, the price is quite near to the price in here and the risk of posting also..  yup I am studying there... It's the very first time I saw memory card here cheaper than Malaysia lol.. Anyways I just bought it LOL, however only after that I saw there're a few negative reviews on it being faulty easily and not performing what a class 10 does... |

QUOTE(freak_z @ Oct 28 2010, 11:28 PM) hiya....just wondering how much did u get the camera in HK ? i heard from ppl that in HK is cheaper compare to in Malaysia ? any warranty problems ? HK is a lot cheaper than Malaysia... twin lens package around rm500 cheaper... their single lens package are the same for both 16mm and 18-55mm... single lens package for nex3 around rm1.6 or less if i didn't rmb wrongly.. But they keep asking u to buy accessories which is expensive though... For Warranty, if you're a traveller buying in HK, you can get the traveller's warranty but it's only valid for 1 year... Whilst buying in Malaysia you get 2-3 years...
Added on October 29, 2010, 12:33 amanyways, just bought an extra rear lens cap and camera body cap for around rm20+ from eBay... Supposed Sony doesn't release it and the one I bought is Capalang one, but boy I am surprised it looks exactly like the real thing LOL....

QUOTE(ahtsong @ Oct 29 2010, 01:47 AM) i don think HK cheaper by RM500 for twins kit. NEX 5D HK is selling 6000+- with the currency rate at 0.4+ = RM2400+ so the dif should be >300 those shop told you they are selling at HKD 58xx are those without stock, actually they are short of stock for twin kit same happen here. Thus mostly all selling at HKD6200+- range Well I am comparing their Sony Style retail price... Malaysia NEX 5D = RM3099, HK = 6290HKD == approx RM25xx... Around there lar... NEX3D = RM2699, HK is 5390HKD == approx RM21xx sourceComparing street prices is not the right way as you said a lot are out of stock... |

Guys, don't ever buy Transcend SDHC cards LOL... Though they are cheap, but they don't even perform par with other brands of lower classes...
Just got my Class 10 8gb transcend SDHC card today, did a benchmark and the performance is lower than a Sandisk Class 4 Ultra II....
Then I did another benchmark for my other Class 6 Transcend SDHC.... It's only slightly better than Class 2 of other brands...
edit: OMG Transcend sucks, my 3 year old SDHC cards of 512mb and 2gb respectively performed better than the so called Class 6!

Added on October 31, 2010, 3:24 amSERIOUSLY.  It just performed slower than what class 10 does. at least it's reliable. as long i have no problem using it on my NEX-3, everything's okay for me. lol  i dunno about reliability... but it's really slow.. just do a benchmark test on it and it'd surprise you how bad it is.... |

Anyways, it's quite nice for such a cheap item...
I like the grip given by the lower half casing which I feel a lot steadier when taking photos

Guys, I need some help on buying extra battery for Sony NEX... Looking through eBay, I see a lot of sellers selling Sony NEX battery that resembles/looks exactly like the genuine packaging so I am confused which ones are actually genuine... Apart from that, our original battery is only 7.2V, 1080mAh... There are a lot of advertised ones are like 7.4V, 1500mAh.... I was wondering if they would pose any damage to my camera if I use those? For example, this one looks exactly like the real thing.. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NP-FW50-NPFW50-Batte...#ht_3233wt_1050this one seems to be the best selling one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Battery-Sony-NP-FW50...=item20b48e773cI am thinking maybe I should go for the best selling one as it might sound more safe? Please help! |
