I would be keen on learning more too, particularly pricing. The actual goods look excellent, but these things can be mighty pricey

cheers

Pricing will, of course, be the issue.

And given the array of stuff that they have available, we'd might also also all need to agree upon which one (or two) products only to bring in, if we're looking at branding it. My guess is that the (lack of) quantity might be the killer, but let's see what Birddog's initial queries bring forth.

Hi All,
Actually I had a talk with the Optech people early this morning over the phone. They will let me know soon about pricing of their products, of course have to be good price, I guess. They do not have any office or reseller in Australia yet and keen to have some relationship with Down Under, that's our advantage.
I like their camera Pro straps, I use them all the time.

I like the look of the GOTCHA wrist strap. It would be very 'handy'.

sirhc55,
Seen it, not a bad product but we are looking something that we can imprint our logos on.
Their camera straps is not so good, got two and the clips was broken after few uses, am still prefer the Optech!
