_____ Posted May 21, 1999 Share Posted May 21, 1999 I shall be grateful for input from readers living in Japan. I am visiting in summer 99 and I am shopping for the Contax 645 cmaera kit, 35mm, 45mm, 80mm, 120 macro, 140mm, 210mm lenses, 120 inserts, accessory Grip and Contax UV filters (72mm, 95mm). If any readers could help me out with enquiring about prices of the above from Yodobashi, Sakuraya, Sanpou, etc, I shall be very grateful. Please list prices in yen. I'll do the conversion myself.

pete_awasthi Posted June 24, 1999 Share Posted June 24, 1999 Did manage to confirm the price of the 35mm lens. The diffrence appears to be insignificant. Yodobashi and Sakuraya quoted the lens for 251,750 yen. I understand only the Mamiya stuff sells for less in Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShunCheung Posted June 24, 1999 Share Posted June 24, 1999 Recently (June 1999), I asked some friends to check the price for the Contax 645 in Hong Kong. It turns out that the camera (body, viewfinder, and film back) plus the 80mm lens cost approximately 10% more in Hong Kong than the $4000 price which is typical in the US at this time.
