Interdelta/Canon Indonesia Jakarta office to pick up a Canon MVX2i miniDV videocam (my wife had been asking for a decent videocam lately, to record our 5 months old son). Canon Indonesia had their product launcing on Nov 18, and they had a sample of 1Ds (not for sale), a couple of 24-70 f/2.8Ls being shown, IS teles, and several new models of miniDV videocams. My Canon marketing reps told me that they initially had received 5 samples of 24-70, but all of these lenses had already been preordered. She also told me that there will be another shipment scheduled in early December for more lenses and will inform me afterwards. I assume that since these particular lenses had already available in Jakarta (albeit in very limited quantity), it might well be available in HK and Singapore as well - I could be wrong though, this shipment might probably specific for the product launching. Klaus Schroiff (with his excellent Photozone site) had been reported that he had handle this lens during Photokina show this year. regards,,, Bambang. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
