QUOTE(thomaskhling @ Dec 26 2010, 03:20 AM) Hi All !! Juz want to get sifu's suggestion. i want to get D7k(c/w kit lens). Do you think is it necessary to get 35mm f/1.8G at once? or Get use with the kit lens first? try to ask around at Empress Studio etc. Not sure Copal can give good price or not. Basically need to do alot of survey around because Kuching price is kinda high and ain't the same as KL price. Got my units from KL instead.Anyone from Kuching? coz i want to ask the lowest price for the D7k in kuching. |

QUOTE(thomaskhling @ Dec 26 2010, 01:15 PM) sigh.... "limited company" most of the camera shop not open today!! COPAL!!!! i asked different branch different offer. i went to GreatWall studio(kuching) website it is 4649. still expensive! if i can find like RM4550 i will get instantly. i got my friend's unit for RM4499, foc bag, 8gb memory card and a screen protector. Didn't ask for tripod because those FOC one doesn't seems durable. ok, here is from one of the shop in kuching offer... RM4800 come with Camera+lens+bag+tripod+memory 4GB. worth????? Over KL, RM45++, does it include bag n tripod?javascript:emoticon(':hmm:') Few options available, a) get a deal from LYN trusted member + postage b) get a deal from Kuching shop c) ask your friend to get from KL and bring it back to you do the maths for the price calculation, see which is worth. |

QUOTE(askakiat @ Dec 26 2010, 03:15 PM) haha,i'm also choosing from ur option...either buy here or buy online/Lowyat members... I don't bother to walk in and ask prices from those shop in Kuching. Expensive and i'm not good in bargain. << also from kuching...  Ended up get from LYN member. I used to stay in Kuching for the past 3 years and currently moved to KL to continue my studies. Good stuff can get decent price and shop around. ( My friend always ask me tumpang buy lah=.=) |

QUOTE(thomaskhling @ Dec 26 2010, 11:47 PM) Thanks Kiki!! Over West m'sia, most of the things are cheaper than east m'sia. btw im new here, and i want to ask, how can i look for LYN? Just slowly browse thru. Don't rush in getting stuff. Beware of conman too. So far 4499 is the cheapest that i heard for the d7k. if i can find in kuching as low as 4550, for sure i will GRAB it!!!   OK!! how can i see the reliability of the TRIPOD? as i heard the mounting plate is quite fragile if u go for cheap. BUT how do we know is good or not?? haha dont say "price tells"!!  And is there any other thing that i need to aware(in term of quality) of before buying the tripod? coz Kuching doesnt hv much choice...Besides looking at the mounting etc, the leg of the tripod is important too. Sure you don't want a trong wind can blow it down for sure. Good brands, Giottos, Benro, Manfrotto, Gitzo, Velbon etc. Sometimes the truth hurts. Yes, i do look at the price.  Try to look at Shashinki or Yamiya for choices. I bought my Benro tripod from Yamiya. 2xx one would be okay already.  |

That's why I never use the Nikon bag. At least got lucky to get the leather type than the BIG Nikon words there. Lots of people complaining about the mount of Nissin flash. Need to handle with care. If i do get Nissin, it think i will break it at the early stage. I got the habit when i'm lazy, i will pick the camera up from the flash(flash attached). Not from the grip. :

QUOTE(thomaskhling @ Dec 27 2010, 05:27 AM) OK!!! Latest news for D7k lover in KUCHING! So far i found the cheapest in kuching is RM4590. Include Camera+lens+memory 8gb+Nikon Bag. If i were you, i would pick up the RM4590 dy. Don't "hiam" too much liao. Extra 40 bucks treat it as "lim kopi". .... problem with me is... my target is RM4550. so i will try to bargain for the greatest deal!! Findings from other shop. They sell roughly around 48++, which include the tripod. BUT... i guess if that tripod give you as present, i reckon u will throw it away!!!! THe tripod kaki know how to "shake". well.. dont get that, u love your D7K. Added on December 27, 2010, 5:38 amhow much is the cheapest for this lens -> AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR Nikon 55-300 = RM1080+- lots of price around. |
