where can get at RM2099?
i think to get one too but twin lens
the best i can get from a friend (dealer) is RM2590 for twin lens and 2180 for 14-42
*
yup twin lens is, as quoted to me, GF2 14mm + 14-42mm white = Rm2599.

so ur twin lens price is marginally cheaper..

n i m kinda torn between single or twin lens..

should i just get the gf2 14mm kit and purchase a 40 - 200mm or buy a twinnie GF2 14mm + 14-42mm white = Rm2599

ohh.. for the price, i just search in the [wts] section...

RM700 used one

rm700 used?

so the twin kit (14mm + 14 - 42mm) at rm2599 is considered cheap leh?

GF2 14mm + 14-42mm white & panasonic 8GB class 4, G series bag, cleaning kit, 2 years warranty = RM2599

if the price is considred cheap, imma gonna strike the deal..

Hi,

I want to ask those who owns a GF2, do you have any redeye issue or flash compensation issue when you takes a picture?  Does it affect the picture quality?

Which pancake are you referring to? There are 3 pancakes to choose from.

But you sounded like you meant the Oly 17mm. If it is, it costs around RM1k.

The  other 2 pancakes are the Panny 20mm - RM12xx and 14mm - RM13xx.

Just a  rough figure.

hi guys, im on a fashion busines.. i take alot of fashion shoots and ive been using E-PL1. It does all the job for me honestly but i was thinking to go slightly more pro camera to get myself upgraded and learn. So i was thinking to keep my E-PL1 for street shooting and would you suggest to buy GH2 since 4/3 inter-exchangeable lenses.

Feel free to give me some suggestion smile.gif
*
E-PL1 is oso interchangeable lense. go for full dslr i would say.. as GH2 & E-PL1 does fall into the same lense category, micro 4/3 lenses & d they r bit exp.. but if u r thinking into sharing with E-PL1 than it would make a diff story..

then again, what ur user requirement... ask urself the questions, d answers will lead u to ur next purchase

No, Samsung is on their own platform.

yup. micro four thirds is developed & owned by Olympus, uses four thirds sensor. Panasonic decides it's too costly to develop their own EVIL (Electronic Viewfinder, Intergrated Lense) / Compact System / mirrorless interchangeable lens camera (MILC)... the name not yet standardized. Pansonic joined the micro four thirds.

Sony have their NEX and Samsung the NX. Samsung & Sony uses the 50% larger APS-C sized sensor.
