I been checking price for Panasonic Lumix FZ28 today in sg wang and low yat. Priced range RM 1200 - 1400.
I want know what things to check when to buy the camera , any trick by seller?
How to check all accessories are original??  rclxub.gif
*
panasonic lumix fz28 should come with panasonic (malaysia) sdn. bhd. warranty card. if u dont get this 100% is consider parallel import which warranty doesnt cover by panasonic(malaysia) sdn. bhd.

that is the thing u have to watch out

Between those brands, at 1k, I would go for the W-series Sony instead of the T-series.  Furthermore, you mentioned 1k, and the T700 is much more than that.  However, at 1k, the best buy IMO is the fuji f100fd going for RM999/- at the moment.
*
for fuji f100d u have to trade in in order to get for rm999.as for sony cybershot,u can get cybershot skinny t77

I have a problem where my Olympus digicam (FE model) is fall in the pool. I already send to the Olympus Service Centre and they inform me that my camera main board need to be replaced and will cost more than a brand new camera. They advise me to trade-in my camera with new .

I need ur  advise
1) trade in program will last end of this month, is it worth it for me to trade in( they claim it is cheaper than outside)
2) is there any shop that can repair or change the board cheap
*
is depend on u how much u willing to spend more.how much is the repairing cost?

thanks for the advice....

where would you recon i buy ...... low yat/sungei wang ? or should i wait for PC Fair
*
as my advise is u dont have to wait till pc fair cause camera is not like computer stuff as they wont decrease the price easily.

even some of the price will rise up due to currency exchange.

even the most on pc fair,all the big name will only throw in abit more free gift but u wont saw any big different with the nett price that u ask in normal day.btw,pc fair is mainly for computer stuff u wont saw alot of camera shop participate,so u cant compare the price between booth

Have you tried your best to bargain? You could ask for a cleaning kit, a flare hood, a CF card, etc. Just try asking and you may get it.

The image stabilization technology of Nikon is called VR.

rm3900 definately is the lowest offer,they hardly will give u any freegift more

tippman, for 1k i guess you cant go wrong with the Ixus 870IS
comes with IS, wide angle lens and noise handling isn't too bad
*
i would suggest tippman to get fuji f200exr that is around same price/slightly more compare to canon ixus 870is

Here's the scene under same lighting conditions.
