Old Hippie Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Emporium, up stairs might have them...Sony store, Phanthip plaza...what is the name of that place on Sukhumvit, near Tops, maybe Soi3??passed 33 maybe..."Electric Avenue" or some such name? There were also tons of high end electronic shops in Ploenchit center, Sukhumvit Soi 2, but I think they are all gone now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Where would be the best place to purchase a DV camera in Bangkok. I would really like to get an NTSC camera if possible. What shop would have the best selection, accessories, and pricing... thanks Might be worth a trip to Singapore, check the duty free there, also the many camera shops in the city (Cathay Camera, has been good). If you plan to send some $$$, the a low cost air ticket to S'pore might not break the budget. However, the mail order camera shops in the USA (New York) are usually the world-wide cheapest, IMO, as I have bought several cameras. Just get a USA photo magazine and check the ads. There are many shop listed! or internet listings (google). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Hippie Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 once you decide on a model, use www.pricegrabber.com or other service to help locate the lowest price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha Posted August 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 I am familiar with several places to get a DV camera in bangkok....rather than looking around I was hoping that there would be a 'best place'......apparently there is not. I will look around this weekend and post my findings. I find it hard to believe that there is not a first rate shop in Bangkok that specializes in video.....and a shop that has almost the same quality but a reputation for beating its prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
