searching for optura 50...
 

seems like I missed the boat with bhphotovideo.

They did have it for $400, but it seems they don't sell it anymore.

Does anyone know any other reputable dealer that sells it anywhere near as cheap as they did?

I have to have this camera!


Thanks Guys.

Anyone here ever use profeelvideo.com?

They have it for $459.95 with free shipping.

Or how about 6th Avenue electronics?

They sell it for $424.00 with.06 shipping.

That's good nough for me, bit I'm just a tad worried of getting ripped off from some con store.

Check out Better Business Bureau at www.bbb.org. they will tell you whether those sites you mentioned are reliable.

If someone orders from an unauthorized dealer, could they not be able to get Canon to honor the warranty? What are the issues withordering from say overstock.com

Also saw this model listed on overstock.com for $470 with $1 shipping.

Has anyone else purchased this recently from somewhere thats its still available at?

Shane, let us know where you decide to get one.

I contacted Mack Camera about their extended warranties and they claimed it can even be purchased for an item purchased on eBay as long as its done within the first 30 days.
