I found this site the other day and was interested...although I'd never heard of them and was not getting my hopes up since at the prices they seem like I'd be buying something broken or who knoews what...a Z1U for 3 grand is pretty frickin sweet.

Has anyone else heard of USA Photo Nation or knows about the legitamacy of the prices or the products. (I did notice ridiculously high shipping fees but still the camcorders with S&H they are still cheaper than they should be)

Noah, run them through resellerratings.com. You may not actually be able to buy a camera through them for that price.

2- Do check out this site's sponsors, like B&H and Zotz Digital and EVS.

B&H has good prices, you may be hard pressed to find someone else more than 5% cheaper than them on things like cameras. You may also be able to get similar prices from the other two vendors mentioned.

Thanks for that reply, Glenn.

As a reminder to our readers, our policy here is that the *only* dealers we talk about on DV Info Net are our site sponsors, therefore I'm locking this thread.
