Lights, Action,….

Okay, it’s not a video camera, but I will be back in the photo business soon. I just bought a Canon Rebel digital camera today. Pretty good deal here. So I decided to go for it.

I keep hearing about all the deals here, but I haven’t found too many. My cousins tell me I’ll get jewelry orders soon. And I do understand opals are a great bargain. And I do know that golf clubs can be purchased at low cost in the mainland. Senzchen is famous for shopping too. But they say everything there is a copy. In fact, some ads I’ve seen show things like a Shoopy dog that looks like a familiar beagle.

Camera shops are plentiful though. But I went with a store in Times Square, a major shopping mall in the city, instead of one of the roadside shops. Extras, like memory card, tripod, and bag were good, and the stories about bait and switch with refurbished models in the roadside shops had me suspicious. All is tax and duty-free. So that is worth a fair share too.

Can’t give you any pictures yet, but I’ll have some soon. Battery has to charge first. So look out. More pictures to be online soon.
