Hi Aaron,

How about in the Tsim Sha Tsui area? Any store you can recommend? Am thinking about the FA 31mm or the 77mm limiteds.

You can also ask Rodney Torres. He bought his DA*50-135/2.8 there a few weeks ago.

I may have looked at the wrong places. Couldn't find Pentax lenses in TST when I was there. Only one shop carried Pentax and I can't remember the name now.....

Thanks for the info, guys. The last time I was in Mongkok was 20 years ago. All signages were in Chinese yet at that time :-)

Hi,

Thanks Randall.

I just arrived from HK a few days ago. I was able to buy the DA* 16-50mm f2.8 from Wing Shing Mongkok for HKD$7590.

I'm not based in HK but I do travel there about 3-5 times a year. Out of all the camera shops that I go to, the only stores that always get "limited" and newest Pentax lenses first are Wing Shing and Man Shing in Mongkok. Sometimes, the lenses are not displayed so you have to ask the sales agents for the lens you want.

The other DA lenses are easily available in TST and the big retail stores like Broadway, Citicall and even the smaller camera shops like TinCheung Camera, New Sankyo, etc. There are other shops elsewhere...

Hope this helps

Hello all.

I'll be heading to HK over the weekend.
Do I look for other Pentax accessories there as well? I was thinking of getting a flash maybe.

Or maybe even another flash that's compatible with my K100d. Any suggestions?

Thanks. :)
