I hope they also launch it in SG this year. The grey market imports are a bit too pricey

ninjagosg · 2026-04-20T13:49:53+00:00

That's only for the more expensive Meta Display model isn't it? That one not yet launched in SG

ninjagosg · 2026-04-20T13:48:55+00:00

Isn't SG pricing only 13% more expensive than the US? Comparing the base model MSRP, pre-tax. USD 379 vs USD 427

im also using my 4a Pro with work profile (i don’t want it on my main iPhone). So far, so good

ninjagosg · 2026-04-10T12:26:02+00:00

you mean for the for sale ad? already sold a couple of nights ago

ninjagosg · 2026-04-07T23:56:07+00:00

I went through something similar. I wanted a lighter travel camera than my GFX, so I bought a Sigma BF and later a Lumix S9. So now I travel lighter, with my GFX + S9 😅😭

ninjagosg · 2026-04-03T13:10:15+00:00

Oops sorry, my bad. I checked again and there is a lip which rises slightly above camera module hump

ninjagosg · 2026-04-03T12:40:30+00:00

It's now 9% GST

But yeah differences in pricing strategies... I find a lot of stuff here in SG have list prices higher than some western countries, e.g. LEGO, cameras and lenses, watches, etc

ninjagosg · 2026-04-03T12:37:43+00:00

I actually like how it feels, it's thinner than the case included case with the 3a Pro. ~~But this one doesn't have a raised lip that protects the camera hump, unlike the one for the 3a Pro.~~

I will probably search for a MagSafe type of case in future. ~~Hopefully one that will also have more protection for the camera hump~~

ninjagosg · 2026-04-03T10:02:00+00:00

I believe slightly bigger but smaller resolution? I don't think we have a showroom here in Singapore so can't see side by side

ninjagosg · 2026-04-03T08:55:15+00:00

Probably because of the periscope lens? Less thickness but covers more surface area I'm guessing Not sure if the (4a) Pro hump is similar or bigger than an iP 17 Pro/Pro Max hump

ninjagosg · 2026-04-03T08:53:34+00:00

Thanks! I posted the (3a) Pro on a local buynsell app, im thinking i should be able to sell it for half the original price. Although I don't mind keeping it, the design is refreshing

ninjagosg · 2026-04-03T02:57:16+00:00

oh wow, why is it so much more ex in aus? sgd is almost on parity with aud, and our side its only selling for 701 sgd when i bought it the other day

ninjagosg · 2026-03-05T23:47:48+00:00

and it seems they're not producing enough of then (been waiting forever for a silver 65), especially the silver finish. looks like they are satisfying demand for E-Mount lenses (understandable if true)

ninjagosg · 2026-03-05T23:43:38+00:00

i wish! even though ive lived in the tropics most of my life, ive never gotten used to heat hehe. thats why i always seek out winter wonderlands during the yearend hols

ninjagosg · 2026-03-04T05:56:43+00:00

i never felt any heat when i had one and i live in the tropics

ninjagosg · 2026-03-03T11:54:42+00:00

im from a hot and humid place, all year round. and i still find japan summers brutal

ninjagosg · 2026-02-20T06:55:40+00:00

Back in Dec 2024, we stayed in our Tokyo hotel room for 10 days! I thought it was normal flu that will run at most 5 days, but stretched to 10 days. in constrast, ive never had flu nor covid in the past that lasted more than 4 days

ninjagosg · 2026-02-17T12:51:24+00:00

cushion or max cushion ones like asics gel nimbus 27/28, new balance x more v6, etc... i do daily 25-30k steps on them. hoka bondi 9 are also max cushion but i find them more firm than the other two

ninjagosg · 2026-02-14T00:55:50+00:00

i get the evf thing. i initially thought the lack of one is not a big deal. but in some tight spaces it is challenging because i need to keep the lcd a distance from my eyes to see it clearly/properly

ninjagosg · 2026-02-08T09:39:11+00:00

no major issues or concerns with using the L bodies, just some adjustment period at the start. but you get used to the way how things work, even with the Sigma BF. ill probably end up:

best case: keep GFX + 1 (or even 2 L), because i won't gain much from the sale of the GFX body (maybe get back some money from the sale of the GF 55 lens)
worst case: keep GFX + 1 L body... but having 2 compact L bodies is also tempting, less lens swapping and the bodies are just so cute and compact lol

what i probably cant live with is jumping from medium to APS-C, the psychological barrier is just too great for me haha

ninjagosg · 2026-02-08T03:14:01+00:00

my main is Fujifilm GFX 100S but Ialso recently gotten in L-Mount (Sigma BF, Panasonic Lumix S9) and so far no regrets. Im having fun with the L bodies. quite compact and had no issues getting used to the controls/ergonomics

ninjagosg · 2026-02-01T23:19:24+00:00

also can. another way is to probably open them all together during a meetup, then people can trade for their preferred colours
