Pauline - There's only one remaining revolving restaurant, at the Hopewell Center in Wan Chai. I don't know what cuisine they do now, and it's definitely not a popular place. There used to be one at the Furama Hotel in Central, but the hotel was torn down for the AIG Tower.

Yes, my Rebel XTi is identical to the 400D. I don't know the prices in Hong Kong, but it's about US$800 here now, with the 18-55. [I bought the body only for about $800 when it first came out; current price is about $700 in the US.]

Be very careful about buying electronics in Hong Kong. And chances are you can't get warranty work in the UK if you buy it in HK, even at an authorised dealer. Now, I buy all electronics here in the US.

All the pictures associated with this trip report have been posted.

The Yunnan trip report is still progressing, and I'll have those photos (lots of them) posted shortly.
