I went down to Salams this evening. It is slap bang in the middle of construction works. Then when I got in I thought I was in the wrong place because all I could see around me was trendy clothes. Luckily I remember reading above that Canon was on the first floor so I got on the escalator fairly sharpish as I was feeling quite out of place by now.
Fortunately the sales assistant knew what a "Compact Flash" was and therefore sold me one. Bit pricey though at QR99.00. I spent yesterday walking around some electronics shops and they had no idea what a compact flash card was. I was getting quite worried since my existing memory card has corrupted.
I enquired about prices for some lenses, a 80-200 2.8 was a cool QR4,000. The sales assistant was being unhelpful because he kept on asking me to ask him for more prices, but at this stage it was getting all too tempting and I walked out of there with my memory card and polarising filter.
