  • Hi Rep

    When would be names be drawn & where would they be published.
    Just to let you know there are no recommended accessories at the bottom of page under Em-1 Pro kit.

  • I was tempted by E-m1 last round but really can't stand the noise performance. Lets hope Sony bring out a new A7S soon. My GAS is tempting me everyday…..

    • I have a E-M5 and I think its picture quality is very good for a micro 4/3 sensor. Of course I don't expect it to be as clean as those full-frame sensors in Canon and Nikon.

      • Em5 and em10 hv sony sensors. Em1 uses panasonic and has crazy noise if long exposure unless dark shot subtraction is on

      • M43 sensor is good for up to 1600. I should have explain myself more what I am talking about. I shot constantly on 6400. So M43 is not really a choice for me and hence why the A7S is so temping. I am waiting for it to come in the new grip of A7ii, and hopefully a bit more pixel count, say 16mp.

  • still haven't received my order from the previous deal (28/11/2014). order status still showing "backordered" ETA 06/12/2014

    • Same, ordered 2/12/14 with expected delivery date of 5/12/14 (also paid for priority shipping) but have yet to receive it. Was told the "Sydney weather" caused the initial delay, then it was the inadvertent "delivery via road between Sydney-Perth due to the weight restrictions" hence another week delay..

      While they have been slow to respond to emails I suspect they are hounded with many back-orders - question is why don't they fix this first before running another "special" only to compound the problem..?

      • Up-date 90% of ALL orders have gone out and the remaining 10% will go today or tomorrow

  • Would buying an additional Olympus lens would qualify as an accessory & get the name in draw.
    As lenses are part of recommended accessories at the bottom of page.

    • Yes buying an additional Olympus lens would qualify as an accessory & get the name in draw.

  • guys, prev deal order hasn't been dispatched
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/172060
    A bit surprised they are listing this camera again when prev orders hv yet to be fulfilled

  • Hey rep, would you mind checking up on the undelivered orders dating back to 28/11/2014?

    With orders from previous deal still undelivered, and GGCW starting another similar deal, am I ever going to get my camera and lens?

    • for those who are still waiting …….The delays have been Olympus’s fault they did not predict the amount of sales this would generate and have promised to air freight not road freight this time, now because of this we have decided those with delayed E-M1 will go into the draw as-well as there is not that many(we know who you are)

  • Got told by rep cameras due in yesterday or today. Dispatching should be soon. Hope it's not another broken promise. I will update the status here.been waiting for weeks. Email was ignored too, had to chase up a chase up email. Good luck if you decide to order.

    • +4

      I had the same problem of my emails getting ignored, and when I sent another follow-up email, I got this rather unfriendly (unedited) response :

      'firstly can I suggest you get a decent email address outside of Hotmail or Gmail or firstly check your spam and junk mail filtering systems free email accounts will always have issues we have responded to every single email that you have sent us'

      The fact that they didn't respond to my initial email, and blamed email filtering systems along with 'blame-other-factors' reasons like weather delays and supplier problems leaves alot to be desired from a first time customer's POV.

      • +2

        This alone prevented me from buying one! How rude!

    • Email was ignored again and again. They don't want to find a reasonable solution for us. A very sad shopping experience.

    • Rep replied on exchanging the colour. hope i get it next wk

      • 2.34 PM, 22/12 (from rep)

        Could you please advise the appropriate Address so that we can arrange to email through to you the paperwork for this particular unit be collected from you tomorrow Tuesday, 23 December.


        I replied at 2.55 PM


        No reply since. Doubt it'll get picked up tomorrow since paperwork hasn't been sent sigh

        • I have to commend them for being able to arrange pickup in one day. Now to wait for replacement and all is settled.

  • i'm interested in purchasing a $3000 lens from them, but i'm a bit hesitant because of the camera order. i'm hoping to receive both cameras by the end of this week as promised.

  • Hi Rep. How about a super bundle deal for the E-M1 with the Oly 25mm? Cheers.

    • well the E-m1 is on a super deal but not the lens sorry

  • Wouldn't this qualify for $100 cashback from Olympus? I see the bundled E-M5 and this lens qualifies for the cashback..

    • anyone who purchases this camera must do so under the assumption there is no $100 cashback however those who do purchase can you email us and be considered one by one, but we cannot give a definite answer on a public forum

      [email protected]

      • Why can't you give a definitive answer? The cashback is public, so why not state publicly about the cashback? Buying local stock should definitely qualify, unless it's not actually local stock. Hmmm.

        • It is local stock 100% its the pressure from other retailers we are trying to avoid, please note we did this deal before and this question was asked and the answer is the same with no negative feedback on the cash back issue

        • @nick coulson: Hi I also emailed and asked the question. No response as of yet. Does this mean i've been considered but didn't pass the criteria for the cash back?

  • the politics in the photographic industry is worse than in Canberra

    • +1

      Any idea when the 40-150 2.8 is going to be available?

      • If you mean the draw We have 100 units so when sold out or 5 January which ever comes first and will be on the latest news section of our site http://gerrygibbscamerawarehouse.com.au/more_news.14.blog

        • No I mean when will the 40-150 pro be in stock?

      • we have 1 for the draw, under 10 pre sold (with our site you can pre-order) we have about 20 on order with olympus but dont know how many we will be given we are expecting 4-6 weeks but they will no doubt go to the pre-orderd

  • Up-date 90% of ALL orders have gone out and the remaining 10% will go today or tomorrow

    • received tracking numbers. Thanks GGCH

    • +1

      Finally received my order from 3/12/14, thanks GGCH! Just in time for Christmas :)

      • Was it overnight delivery from when you received tracking information?
        I still haven't gotten my tracking number and have it addressed to my workplace, which closes for Christmas after tomorrow. :(

        • +1

          Yes overnight delivery - tracking information didn't work until the morning I received anyway (that's how quick it took!). Give them a call and find out if they have shipped it yet - they may have not emailed you the tracking ID yet.

    • +1

      received but camera wrong colour still not sorted

  • +1

    I received mine from the previous deal today! Took a few weeks but their communication throughout was good I found. Beautiful camera and lens, I ordered the silver one and received the correct colour - was a bit of a wait but I'm very happy now!

    Just waiting on the 40-150mm f2.8 which I pre-ordered - is there any idea of when this is due to start shipping out?

    • +1

      i also received mine today (ordered previous offer), thanks GGCW! great deal!

      • +1

        I also got mine today. Just in time for the holidays!!!

        • Awesome stuff! Glad you got it! It's an awesome camera and ggcw delivered again! I thought the em5 was good..this thing is a monster…the af is blazing fast and it handles really well. Don't forget to update the firmware.

        • @poop: I got the silver model so it was preloaded with 2.0. Is there a newer firmware out?

        • +1

          @Rufoz: yep there's 2.2 out ATM.
          How do you find the silver? I debated but then couldn't go passed the black.

        • +1

          @poop: ye I'm happy. The silver is right for me. Reminds me of the old om film cameras. Looks really good with the oly silver 70mm f1.8 attached too.

  • I dont know why but very few people (under 10) are in the draw for the free 40x150mm f2.8 + extender because they did not buy an accessory with the order

    • I bought a lens with the previous deal i received yesterday. Does this mean i'm in the draw?

  • Hey rep, Does it specifically have to be an accessory for the em1 or just any accessory ..?

    • To qualify for the draw

  • Today's the big day, good luck to all, but hoping this will be a nice birthday present for me! :P

  • Same as above, excluding the birthday present part.
    Have been keeping an eye on
    http://gerrygibbscamerawarehouse.com.au/more_news.14.blog?ze…
    But still no announcement as of yet

  • +1

    well no present for me, but hopefully the winner in an Ozbargainer.
