As per the title states..

I once asked for the price of SB600 (Nikon's DSLR flash) and they're selling at RM800
I know for a fact that the price of SB600 in camera shops is ~RM750

So I'm asking is it worth buying cameras at pc fair ? or I should just go to camera shops outside

2) Sub-Question tongue.gif
As you should have already know, I'm using a Nikon DSLR (D70s)
And you know how heavy DSLRs are
So I'm not actually carrying it around wherever I go

Now I realised that I need a camera that I can always carry around as my secondary camera (for those unexpected moments)

What I'm looking for is there must be manual control
VR or IS or whatever-the-technology-they-name-to-reduce-blur, is almost a must
Of course, the other qualities of the camera musn't be too bad
A good camera overall lah - thats what I'm looking for

Is there any digicam with this citeria at the price range of RM800-RM1k ?
I don't know cause I haven't do any research yet
I thought I could ask you guys to limit my scope before I decide which to buy

Please advise
Thx

My schedule...
Go to pc fair. Looking for prices.
Go to other places. Compare prices...

If price different between pc fair n other place is big. Then i buy at pc fair. Else, i buy it at permanent shop. At least i know where to sent it for warranty or whatever

Already said is PC price so price cut would be on PC more than others thing...mostly i think they will bundle with more thing on the package only and lens, flash price all wouldn't be cheap much since the MARKET value is always there...

It's impossible a 2.4K lens selling at 2K or below lor...

Just my 2 cents.

Anyway i should be going after work tomorrow...just across my office only brows.gif
