Gh 2 anyone know where I can get one

Postby briaan65 » Wed May 30, 2012 11:28 am

Hi,

I have been trying to order a gh 2 for my camera, so far I vain, no one seems to have any.

The nice chap at Morris Photographic said that as Ricoh had bought out Pentax, Pentax would become the distributors in the UK but there's no time scale.

Any help appreciated.

Sorry to tell you this but in Sydney most camera stores are getting rid of their Ricoh stock off the shelves. Seems there's a problem getting stuff to Oz at the moment. I picked up my GXR S10 2mths ago in a store where all Ricoh's were half price (CX5's for $155au!!. Haven't seen a CX6 in Sydney yet and I browse quite often) ......To answer your question, I walked into a store yesterday and they had half a dozen GH-2's in a sell-off box for $30au each......as well as other bits and pieces, none of which I needed though....I wish you luck in your quest, Ricoh gear is, at the moment, hard to come by in certain parts of the world......Maybe the transition to Pentax etc?..... :shock: :shock:

Hi Guys,

thanks for all of the replies, I know that SRS, clifton and morris photographic don't have any and they have no idea when or if any new stock will arrive.

Thank you for the link, it's interesting to read about this and the fact that there appears to be some sort of transition period between the two companies, I'll keep on searching ;-)

Hi Guys,

thank you for all of your advice, I have now exhausted all of the dealers in the UK where I thought I may get one.

I suspect that I may have to move to Amazon in Spain or Germany.

regards
