Where do you guys recommend to buy cameras? With good price and good service.

Me and a friend planning to buy the Panasonic LX3 together. 2 units in total. We are in KL.

Any comment on Panasonic LX3? Anyone knows the current market price? Will it be cheaper if I were to buy in Singapore? If yes, anyone knows how does the warranty go? Is it international?

Er.. I think I'm asking too much here. blush.gif

Thanks in advance. notworthy.gif

Type of camera/lens/accesories : Compact camera
Budget : RM800-1200
Your location: PJ/KL
Preferable brand : Canon/Nikon/Panasonic
Type of photography you want to do : For travelling/events
Any specific models in mind : Panasonic LX3
Any specific features you want? : Wide angle/fast shutter/fast flash recharge (my Nikon very slow in recharging flash)

Is there any other models that's almost par with LX3 but cheaper price?

Uncontested, the LX3 is best for wideangle shots with a 28mm lens.  nod.gif

The FZ28 is a superzoom so don't expect it to be giving you good wideangle, and I don't know about the Ricoh. Too unpopular amongst users here.  blush.gif

Have you tried out the FZ28 personally? I can't decide between LX3 and FZ28. The shop told me both are having very similar features. It's just that FZ28 has very powerful zoom + its body size.

Need more opinions please.

Which one is more recommendable? G10 or LX3? I've checked Dpreview but the specs are too technical for me. G10 is also wide angle?

Size - LX3
Optical Zoom - G10
Price - G10 RM18xx? LX3 RM15xx?

What else?

Argiope........ that name sounds like taken from Ragnarok Online. tongue.gif

anyway, LX3 is wider than G10. and wider aperture setings too.

I'd go for LX3 la.

Hmm. Mayb it's a good choice. As it's like DSLR look alike. Look more PRO. LOlz.  Bsides fz28, any other brand look alike DLSR ranging around tat price? I m afraid the fz28 will not be available. Coz it released on july 2008

FZ28 is still available. Price is around RM1200-1300 in Low Yat. I asked around for this model last week only. tongue.gif
