QUOTE(KTCY @ Aug 24 2008, 10:47 PM) darthbaboon, read your blog. You got your Lowpro 350 for only RM 260 ? Thanks for popping by mate... and yes I got it from MBK Bangkok in a shop called PhotoThailand... there's a very good selection of Lowepro bags there and they've got many many Fastpack 350s in stock. They had a Computrekker Plus AW for THB 4800 too but I didn't think much of that bag... too big like a turtle shell.Very cheap and mind to share where you get it ? Is it widely available through out Thailand ? That's the cheapest I've found so far... in Panthip Plaza it's a little more expensive than the MBK... that's what I recommend for now but I haven't really been doing a lot of searching. |

QUOTE(asfax @ Aug 27 2008, 07:37 PM) ha ha also change my wish gear to D90 now. 2 in 1 function look so great. Hope the price not so high maa .... lets other people try the 1st batch then waiting for pro & con. Won't have cons wan la... it's not like a completely new technology or software that has bugs. Unless the video mode really have problem. Otherwise everything else is a watered down D300. |

QUOTE(kenlimfornication @ Sep 2 2008, 05:20 PM) Hello guys, I've been looking at a D60 for quite sometime now. I've been reading up a lot too. As I've never used a DSLR, but I'm really interested to take up and learn photography as a hobby. And I've made up my mind to get a D60 as a start. Where are you located? If you're in the Klang Valley, I heard that YL Camera and J-One gets good votes from all the peeps. For their addresses, just check out Page 1 in the D300 thread, or do a random search... they have been mentioned everywhere.Any recommendation for a place to get a brand new 1, anyone knows a shop with a knowledgeable and friendly enough to let me know every pros and cons hands on? I know, I've also compared and read reviews at dpreview. Please do let me know the place that gives the best offer, sharing knowledge, etc via pm or this thread. Thanks! For sharing knowledge, anyone in this thread or forums should be able to help you out... or at least, we pretend to be knowledgable. |
