I got my FZ 28 from Melaka ah... LOL Jalan Munshi Abdullah Panasonic Shop ... try ask there....He just got for me 1 stock lar... since i've ask since last month... I remembered he did mention few stock is coming 2, or 3 days later when the day i bought it... I did ask for LX 3 also.... he say he will have that stock... try asking them....

I paid RM 1499 and i have 1 year international warranty, and 2 years "normal" warranty.... i think the "normal" is the shop's warranty.... the laopan say anything wrong... just bring it to the shop and he will settle it for me.... UNLESS.... kena water, drop, etc those serious case lar...... LOL.....
and i have 4GB SDHC memory card.... actually you have to go there and bargain lor.... try there.... the boss not bad... I'm sure you can get a better price if you're good at bargaining...

Added on August 24, 2008, 3:48 pmFZ28 is one real good asset... Ysd i took Jolin , Rainie at the 8TV event... I was at the back there keep on taking photo... with many settings.... But i found out the output was really fascinating.... FZ 28 is really better than FZ 18.... Not much noise surprisingly.

Added on August 25, 2008, 5:04 pmwah wah wah.... Tribute to FZ28 ..... LOL cool.... Hey hey.... as what you said ..... "calvintc, for fz28, look for the AF/MF button on top near the shutter release button, than use the arrow up/down to focus where you want..." ............I've tried that.... we can get the focus that we want... but i still get the picture blur.... How come ah.... and i still don't know how to take a picture with the object focus and background blur..... any advice...... thanks.....and any setting that is nice to share with us.... taking photo indoor, low light, macro... etc..... i wanna learn......

FZ28 is very light.... Good for girls... Macro excellent... Fireworks haven't tried.... Lowlight scenery .... i feel have to depends on skills.... Portraits..... also have to depend on skills.... Today i went out with my friends did some potraits photo.... outcome some are good and some are not.... Welll i've been using it for 1 week + only.... skill not good at all.... sad......
But one thing is dat.... i use auto mode to take photo of long distance open air concert....the outcome surprise me...... i feel i need to learn to use this FZ28 more.... too many function.... good for beginner like me.... who doesn't wan to spend more on lenses..... mayb in 2 or 3 years time when i have the money and interest..............

Added on September 1, 2008, 12:35 amIs depends on you.... Ask yourselve this question....
1) What you want to do with your camera? Is it for professional or just armature P&S.? For PRO.... go for DSLR.... for Armature.... Go for P&S
2) Does $$$$ is your main factor????? if yes..... Go for P&S.... if $$$ not a problem.... Go for DSLR.....
3) You want to easy excess to where ever you go? Den get a small one.... (P&S)
4) If you believe in Quality..... Both have QUALITY..... but DSLR.... can upgrade to better Quality.....
5) Are you a beginner like me in Camera? If yes.... get FZ28 ...... if you consider yourself as pro.... get DSLR.... DSLR is the Better choice.....

By the way.... the cons about FZ28 is no hot shoe..... lense can't change....What you expect.... Bridge camera lei.... if got all those is DSLR d lor....LOL.... if you wanna compare noise...... I feel Venus Engine 4 give a very good performance..... but of course lose to CANON DSLR.....

this is just my point of views for my 1 week after i get my FZ28 and the doubts i have before i own FZ28..... I have no regrets in getting my FZ28 ..... just that Money fly..... LOL..... Money can earn back..... but the moments and skills is worth the price u pay for ur FZ28.....

you are right with the price of D40 and FZ28 is within the price range.... but FZ28 has 18X zoom.... try to get that zoom lense for ur D40.... i'm not sure about the price but i'm sure is more than RM 1000..... hehe.... and D40 body doesn't have IS.... you have to get the new lense for it.... with IS..... $$$$$$$.........think about it..... going for professional where ur career will bring u income? or you just as a hobby? hehe

dis is my personal opinion only...I do other ppl will share their opinion as we can share our knowledge in here..... i hope there is more FZ28 n Lumix-ian around the whole world.... "I'M NOT WORKING FOR PANASONIC AH" don't mistaken..... not promoting PANASONIC..... just promoting LEICA Lense.... hehehe

why FS3? i also agree FS3 is good... just wanna know more opinion
