Adagio Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I know what camera I want but I live in a small island in the gulf and don't want to travel to buy it. I had my last laptop delivered here without a problem, so I hoped someone would be able to recommend a good online camera store. Unfortunately I read no Thai so some degree of English would be necessary, though I know what I want and could probably get a Thai friend to help.

Adagio Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 Hi, try tohome.com they sell all kind of other stuff too.mbox Thanks for that, it's what I'm looking for but they don't sell the particular camera I want unfortunately, probably as they are a more general retailer as you mentioned.

Adagio Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) I have checked out all these sites http://www.fotofile.net http://www.meecamera.com http://www.worldcamera.co.th http://www.viewfindercamera.com http://www.avcamera.com http://www.thaicameracafe.com/ http://www.photobugonline.com/ http://www.niksthailand.co.th/ http://www.digitallifethailand.com/ Some of them look good and are in English, at least enough for me to be able to navigate, but none of them sell the particular model of camera I am looking for (Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28), I'm not sure why, it appears to be widely available for sale in other countries.

hughden Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 (edited) I think the FZ28 has been replaced with the FZ35-FZ38. My personal experience of buying non-mainstream cameras is that they can be very hard to find in Thailand. So I have been buying from Hong Kong based retailers via eBay. The prices, even including courier delivery, are competitive, the camera arrives in 2-3 days after ordering and is delivered by courier. I have bought from DC Empire and Digital Rev, both gave very good service. I have bought a Sigma DP1, A Panasonic LX3 and TS1, and a Canon SLR lens via this method with no problems.
