I go to Hong Kong alot. You have to shop round in Hong Kong. Camera shops everywhere. I don't find it a real bargain, although the exchange rate is ok at the moment. Know your prices in $aus before you go. I think it's recommended retail is around $750 aus, but you can pick one up for $500 on ebay. It is around $650 singapore dollars in Singapore.($566aus) I had a look at this camera as well. It's a great camera to throw in the bag for your holiday and you tube style clips but be aware of its low light and video resolution limitations, as well as the anti shake isn't that effective. It doesn't come with an sd card in the box. By far the cheapest price for this camera was in the states although our dollar has weakened considerably since. $345 US with 8gb card
