Curt1591 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Yes, but be looking for "FotoFile". I believe they have 3 outlets in MBK, the easiest to find probably being the ground floor store. It's located a few doors north of KFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's located a few doors north of KFC. Once I got to MBK I quickly found the polarizing filter at the Canon outlet. Very professional there. Probably not the cheapest, but I was pleased that they were carrying HOYA brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an aside: I've been impressed with Canon Thailand's service. There is a recall on my G10, so I took it to the Sathorn/Narathiwat headquarters. Because the "problem" hasn't yet affected me, and the fix would require leaving the camera for 3 days, I opted to wait until I noticed a problem. Because I had already come downtown, the staff offered to take the camera and do a thorough cleaning for my trouble. After about 15 minutes, my camera was returned, looking as new.

Is it a service center and headquarters, or do they also sell equipment there? In terms of price, my guess (and it is only a guess) is that the Canon shop was more expensive, although they did give me a 10% discount from the marked price without my asking for it.

Roota Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I've been impressed with Canon Thailand's service.Me too. They've gone out of their way to help me several times. I wish I could say the same thing for Niks . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nari/Sathorn office is for service only; it's not a retail outlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
