    First Time post

    We look forward to your next post in another 3 years…

    • First Time post

      OP: This is already obvious to others by the '1' next to your handle.

      Putting this in the top part of the description means the specifics of the deal are pushed down and less is displayed in the summary of your deal on the New Deals page.

      Unnecessary and detrimental to your deal -> edited.

  • OP how did you change your order? I ordered the body only last night and paid via credit card but definitely want the kit instead.

    • I emailed them at e-store@ggch DOT com DOT au

      • Ok, so did you place a new order and ask for the original to be cancelled?

        • No, I had asked them for pricing of the lens in the original order, so I got this email earlier today:

          the Olympus E-P5 with the 17mm F1.8 lens and VF4 Viewfinder kit is $1075.00

          We do have this version available and the order can be modified if you wish.
          The cost difference is $415.00
          Please let us know ASAP if you wish to modify the order.

          I just replied back stating that I'd like to change it to the kit instead.

        • Thanks

  • just curious why buy this over OMD-EM5?

    • +1

      Bigger and higher resolution viewfinder
      Viewfinder can be detached for a smaller camera
      Higher resolution rear LCD
      More manual controls
      Faster max shutter speed
      Built in flash
      Focus peaking
      Wifi

      I don't think you can buy the E-M5 with this lens (which is very good) for $1100 either.

      • so really this one is better than omd-em5 ? wow.. i thought omd is already very good cam

  • +1

    this is an incredible price! I have the 17mm f/1.8 and I have to admit that it is one hell of a lens

  • Can't find deal anymore!!!
    :(((((((( it's changed to the 14mm lens without vf?

  • -1

    Pls someone find another deal like this?…….

  • +1

    Deal expired. Link can not be found … anymore

    • Marked expired.

  • +1

    Deal appears to be back on!

    • Thx. Expiry cleared.

  • Just wondering, those who ordered, has anyone's kit shipped out yet?

    • I got mine already. :)

      • Mine still hasn't been shipped. Yesterday, they emailed me wanting me to send photocopy of my CC & Driver's License to protect themselves from 'fraudulent' use of CC. Apparently there has been too many credit card frauds in last 2 weeks with SecurePay. So, after emailing the details they said, it'll take another 24-48 hours for them to ship! Not impressed with the amount of time they're taking to turn around.

        • Oh I paid using PayPal, thus there was no issue whatsoever with the payment. Hope you'll get yours soon! Happy with my E-P5. Awesome camera. :)

          And the price is back to 1,399$ now!

  • Did you guys get black? I ordered silver kit with VF4 and Lens. Awaiting stock from distributor according to them!

    • I asked for Silver. That would explain it. Current order status says: Goods in Transit From Distributor

  • Update me when your status changes!
    I was told should be tomorrow at the latest.

  • Ordered Silver. Got it on Monday. Thank goodness I don't need to wait since I am going overseas this weekend.

    • Lucky you! I"m going away this weekend also.

      Did you get the kit or body only? I ordered body onyl silver, and was about to ship but i cancelled and got kit instead.

      • Mate. I ordered the kit as well. Love the lens (it comes in black color). Hope you'll get yours before you leave!

        • I was hoping for silver lens as well, but I'm sure Black will look just as good.

  • Any updates? My order status still shows "Goods in Transit From Distributor". Hope they going to ship it sooner.

    • No updates. I just sent them an email showing dissatisfaction with delay. Had they made it clear on the website at the time of ordering, I wouldn't mind waiting. I hope to have it before this weekend.

      EDIT: Just got a response back stating that warehouse has dispatched the order early this morning & that they will be able to provide me with tracking info. once they update the system at 10 AM Perth time.

      • Thanks for the information, i will let you know when my order changes. I'm anxious to receive as i've got to go overseas otherwise i'll be stuck with using my om-d (lol, still a good camera but i've had it for a year and a half, could do with a change).

        • Just checked my email this morning. Tracking number was finally emailed last evening around 7 PM QLD time. And the package has already arrived at Brisbane depot. Looking forward to getting it soon. Hopefully, you all get yours today as well.

  • Yes. Mine shows is on board with driver. Any moment from now.:)

    • Got mine already. :)

  • Mine was delivered this morning at 8am! Lol, the guys at work delivered to the wrong me at the wrong department! didn't get it until i checked shipping and then asked them where it was!! close one lol, some other me was about to score some free E-P5s!

  • Anyone located in Sydney want to trade their silver lens for my black lens?

  • Anyone else still waiting for theirs to be delivered?

    • Not yet. They send mine to Richmond Tasmania instead of Richmond Victoria.. Sigh

      I think this online business thing is a bit foreign to them. Their site is not the greatest (remember having to uncheck all 30 addons before you can add the ep5 kit to the shopping cart?). Also the fact that they sneakily added 7-10 delivery time much later after their deal was reactivated and they didn't admit it when I raised it with them.

    • I am waiting too. Goods in Transfer from Distributor since 16 Oct.
