New Camera!!

Bought my new digital camera! DSLR this time! Progress! Canon EOS 400D! couldn't resist the I.T show promotion... initially wanted to get the Canon EOS 450D, but the guy say will take about 2-3 month time then will come... plus chances is no free gifts for the new unit.. and also, sure will be price at around S$1300 - S$1500 range....

so might as well get the EOS 400D at a cheaper price with free gifts!! Yup!

EOS 450D main attributes that are superior to EOS 400D is it's higher MP, spot metering and live view... but then again.. MP =/ image quality... and live view, can live w/o it! well .. the spot metering... just have to tweak the exposure when the situation warrants!

For S$1,199.... i got.......

  • EOS 400D DSLR Body
  • EF-S 18-55mm Lens
  • 2 X Sandisk extreme III 2GB CF Card
  • 2 X Original Canon Batteries
