but i ask around last week at KL the price range is about 4450-4550

a check with LYN's mitmivec D7000 kit is around rm4450
so rm4400 aint reli dirt cheap oso

i just checked out nikon D3100, omg i was shocked to the quality of the camera... it is made in thailand, the cover for SD memory card is so loose it feels out of place shaky, the zoom was terrible and the salesman wasnt helping... he kept recommending panasonic lumix (a non dslr but it can zoom really really far and the quality is excellent for video and shooting)... wtf... i'm totally disappointed

the lens that come with it 18-55 is really sucks, cant zoom further than a digital cam >.< when the lens rotate out, it was so short like a small 2 inch lil bro -.-

furthermore, the rotate button to live view and viewfinder view is totally unresponsive, either that or the system is so slow to change mode...

most entry level camera r made in thailand la, even D5000, D90 n D7000

n wat u expect of 18-55, d number shows it d
on compact cam equivalent its only 3x optical zoom
even d high priced 18-200 is abt 11x optical zoom only
DSLR is not all abt zooms
if u wan long range there is 300mm, 400mm, 500mm, 600mm, but no zoom, n those costs tens of thousand to hundred thousands ringgit

n y u want lens to rotate out long?
expensive zoom lenses such as 24-70 n 70-200 dun even extends when they zoom

switching frm viewfinder to live view nid to wait d mirror to flip up n shutter to open, definitely will have some delays there

50 bucks can get McD or KFC yo XP

But yea, 4.4k at malacca, which is a small town provides a good price compared to big shops over KL. Therefore, if you are at malacca, then feel free to grab it.

Been always wondering, why Penang stuffs is always cheaper... Hmm... they selling with lesser profit, or they getting better pricing from distributor.
