If not urgent, can monitor B&H also.
They shipped to Msia, and if got promotion, really cheap. Last promotion on GX85 + 12-32mm combo, 498USD only.

Have you personally tried B&H? Kastam how? GST? unsure.gif

Hi all, my EM5 mk1 shutter gets stuck frequently these days so I want to send it for a check or repair at the olympus service centre.

When I try to take a picture sometimes the shutter refuses to open so I need to take the battery out and on off repeatedly to get it unstuck. I tried long exposures as well which I read may help get it unstuck but after awhile it happens again. My shutter count is about 24000/100000

Does anyone know the price to service & also shutter replacement cost? Bought the camera in 2013..

Thank you

Quick question! Lx10 vs Lx100. Which one would you choose? For photo more than video.

G7X ii same issue witt mk i. The wide end has almost no resolution on the corners.

G9X ii is like a even more pocketable version of RX100 mk1. I didnt like the touch only interface.

RX100 mk3 and above would be ideal but note that used rx100 cameras can have all sorts of problems. Too many things stuffed inside small body.

LX100 got evf but no selfie screen tongue.gif It's still thicker than all the above including the GF+12-32kit.

Maybe u can also take a look at used gf7 or gf8. Those are dirt cheap since thet have practically have no resale value but are pretty nifty lil cameras for family outings.

Pair it with the 12-32 kit + 8mm body cap fisheye + something a bit faster like 20mm, oly 17mm or even cheapo 14mm then its basically ready for everything for not much money. And there's also the option for the 35-100.

actually I have been waiting for your input biggrin.gif

so can I say G7X ii is not a good buy?

RX100 mk4 will cost RM3k.. kinda expensive sad.gif furthermore I have a feel this camera is more towards for video than photo..

I like touch screen and if can with tilt screen would be best.. so i'm leaning more on G7X ii now but you said wide end no resolution on the corners sad.gif

G9X ii also not good? RM2k is a good buy for me

My 2cents.

G7X was my lead contender as well but got put off after a couple gazillion hours on forums and flickr.

Dpreview has this to say.

A Note on Lens Quality

Something we've noticed while testing all of the 1"-type enthusiast compacts is a large amount of variation in lens quality.

In this case, we have one G7 X II that's soft in the corners but great in the center and another that's just the opposite. The lenses on our original G7 Xs as well as a pair of G5 Xs weren't great, either. But this isn't a Canon problem alone. Of our four Sony RX100 IV cameras, three have so-so lenses and one is stellar. But then three of our four RX100 III copies have very good lenses. In other words, your mileage may vary.

Given the ambitious nature of the lenses on these cameras it's not surprising that there's a lot of variation. While you might find a copy that's sharp corner-to-corner, odds are that you won't, but that's the nature of the beast.


G9X is absolutely no go for me. The interface is yucks imo.

Handling wise its the best. G7X > RX100 with grip > GF7 with RX100 grip > LX10 = RX100 = Panny GF >>>>>> G9X

If its not for the XT20... I would've gone for a GF9 in all black. The awful color scheme is my only gripe with my GF7.

Yes of course. You hilang mana for so long? biggrin.gif

RX100 mk2 no selfie screen how to vlog.

X-A3 got selfie screen but the 16-50 lens is not very compact so unless she do that Neistat gorilla pod thingy... it don't feel right imo. Additionally.. face detection is not one of fuji's strong point. In fact my GF7 does better face detection and the brand new X-T20.
