no, it's only for release in japan, the UK, and the upper congo.

 

No reason why it shouldn't be available. List US price is around $599 -
do the math yourself.

 

ROTFL, then it will probably be AU$1500 in Oz

realistically... $600 USD list means it will sell there for about $480 USD,
or around $700 AUD. Which means over here it will be around $1000-$1100 AUD
($1200 list)

normally i add about 50% markup (GST + rip-off margin) after direct currency
conversion.

 

Hi Marc,

I emailed Panasonic Australia about it, as I am also interested,
and they apparently dont know anything about it at all. So it doesnt
sound promising.

There are several Panasoinc products overseas in thr HT arena that have
never seen the light of day here, so we may not see this camera. That
being said, in the past I have found Pansoni email support to be
incompetent at worst or poorly trianed/informed at best. eg asking about
products on their web site, carridge based DVD-RAM disks and they tell me
there is no such thing, RAM media does not come in cartridges, let along
the fact I had 1/2 a dozen pieces sitting on my desk at the time.

I'm thinking about getting the Lumix DMC-FZ10 in Japan.

It's about 50,000 yen, which is about $620 AUD.

You should be able to get it shipped here including, 5% commission,
shipping, etc & Australian GST through www.pricejapan.com for about
$850

 

It's been released in Australia:

RRP: $1199
