pricing in asia
Hi,
I'm traveling to South East Asia in a few months (Singapore, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpor), and have thought about buying a camera. Probably a Nikon D90 - but could be a D80 or a D300. Does anyone know what sort of prices these cameras sell for in these places? Where I live I can buy them (bodies only) for about d300 US$1800 d90 US$1200 d80 US$700 Thanks, Peter

There is certainly not enough of a saving to justify taking a big chance over the warrantee that comes with the camera, which will probably NOT be valid when you get home. Cheers Mike

You may be pleasantly surprised.
