Where to buy X100 or X10 in Hong Kong?

[haagen_dazs]

Hey folks
Just wanted to know where is a legit and good place to buy the X100 or X10 in Hong Kong?
Is there a place where I can fiddle around and test out the cameras without getting bugged and pressured into buying?

Cheers

you should go to Mong Kok (in Kowloon district), there's a street named Sai Yeung Choi Street South.
it is a pedestrian precinct after 4pm every day.
there's tons of electronic product shops along each side of the street,
names like Broadway, Fortress are the most recognised in HK. (their prices are almost the same because of the competition)
Wing Shing Camera is the only shop that specialised in photography products (they sell films, camera bag and Voigtlander + Zeiss Ikon lens!) check their link.

you can fondle as you like inany of these shops.

😀YES Exactly!!!! Especially in Tsim Sha Tsui area.
and those shops usually have the same window display style (flashy neon sign):
