[jomarmanto]

sirs, question lng po, where can i get manfrotto tripods, hindi kasi ako makakita e,nakakita lng ako nung may event sa vmall e, but that time i still don't have a cam and budget is quite low, but now i'm looking forward to getting my first tripod, so invest na ako sa good brand para hindi na magpapalit, and how do i choose a tripod pala?what things should i take into mind in buying a tripod?

choose the 055 or 190 series. even if you upgrade to a d3 or d300, ok pa rin.

i have no idea how much na these models cost. check mo na lang sa island. and yes, you have to buy the heads separately.

FYI, you can call them up to save time if there no stocks.  Tel.  810-7616 Look for Kuya Paul. 

Btw, I called last week and their new stocks will arrive next year.

484RC2    2200

So pwede mo pa siguro tawaran yang sa Infomaxx.

ang layo nmn ng price hehe sa island na nga ako titingin, panu ba dun?pag hindi ka kilala, mataas magprice and barat sa discount o, khit sino, basta makipagtawaran ka lng ok lng sakanila? sa hidalgo kasi minsan ganun e.

FYI, most of their stocks will be coming in next year pa daw.  Lalo na yang mga sikat na items and all ballheads daw.

Sa Infomaxx, never tried buying from them usually kasi overpriced.  But they do have some items na sila lang meron.

Good luck hunting!

This may be a little off the topic but I am also interested in getting a manfrotto tripod. Since the stocks will be coming in next year(ang tagal), does any body know if the prices in Singapore are cheaper compared to the ones here(will be there this Dec)? Thanks in advance for any answer.

Thanks for the reply sir Jomarmanto.
With your answer and the answers of sir nissin and Raman regarding the prices, I think I will be able to canvass enough in Singapore to be able to decide if I will buy the tripod there or wait for the stocks to arrive next year. (Baka may additional dicount during the Photoworld Asia 2008 this January  )
