Hello from Singapore

Hi Everyone,

Felix is my name and I hail from the island of Singapore. I was a former owner of the Z-20 AF SLR before deciding to jump into the DSLR wagon with a 2nd hand K10D in 2007.

Just last week, I got my K20D after seeing my friend with theirs and being teased for still having the K10D when almost everyone has gone the K20D route.

Here to share and learn more.

Hi Amin,

I live in the Delta/River Valley area. Close to Bukit Merah.

Sentosa is now too costly to visit as it is catering more to tourist than locals.

Felix and Amin,

I too used to visit Sentosa - staying at the Rasa hotel. As I was working there, it did not cost anything to get onto the island. I can still call an old friend and meet them there for lunch.

And I still order my shirts from Singapore - Stitchwell in Lucky Plaza ... one call, and within 10 days they can be here in England.
