Steve, The link you posted shows K-3 BG-5 grip for $997 (996.95), and AF-540 costs additional $80.95 if purchased together. The bundle of all three that you mentioned is available for $997 at Adorama: http://www.adorama.com/IPXK3KE.html There are a few other bundle variations that are available from Adorama and some - from BH: http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/94-pentax-price-watch/274593-pentax-k-3-100-price-drop-k-50-50-price-drop-october-2014-a.html Often BH matches Adorama (and vice versa), so similar bundles can appear on BH (if they haven't yet).

Filter: low-end B+H or Hoya HMC?
Hi, I want to buy a UV filter for my DA zooms. There are 2 options that cost more or less the same (around 20 EUR). A 'normal B+H (without extra coating) and a Hoya multicoated (called HMC or something similar). The 'normal' Hoya costs 10 EUR and it still says that is coated. I have used it in another zoom and I have no complaint, but I didn't know about the more expensive version. So, what are your experiences? Is it worth the 10 extra EUR?

RE: Filter: low-end B+H or Hoya HMC?
I think the nearest B+H get to filters is the ones on the end of the cigarettes they make. Perhaps you mean B+W :o) In your position I would buy the Hoya for the multicoating.

Re: B+H
They have been dependable and prompt in their shipments to me. Awhile back, they went through a number of Jewish holidays, but their home page noted it and offered their apologizes for any inconvenience. Their notice of shipment probably indicated the carrier to be UPS(?), and should have included a tracking number. I have the tracking number memorized when I'm expecting something good. Christmas glut may be having its effect on the carrier. Jack --- Pål Jensen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone knows how quick B+H are to ship the orders?

B+H weird shipping charges
Hi all, Just out of curiosity I had a look at the FA*400/5.6 on B+H. I clicked on the shipping info and got two quotes; one for the UK and one for NZ. To have it shipped across the pond to the UK is $72.50, or to send it all the way to NZ costs $70.75. Both via Fedex Priority. That's just a little bit confusing. VAT/GST and duties are not included as they work out to more than the shipping cost. Something else that suprised me is that the A-400/5.6 is still available, and is about $200 more expensive than the FA. I hope I can find the FA lens at a good price in London, then I can just throw it in my luggage. My dream is to find both this lens and the FA*200/2.8 together secondhand at a price I can afford :) Cheers, - Dave in sunny Bognor - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Re: Fw: B H
Hi Carl, I was trying to remember my experiences buying used at BH. I seem to recall the salesman telling me that they are not allowed to negotiate. However, their prices are generally reasonable, and they have a lot of nice stuff. Olden Camera, which was on Sixth between 33rd and 34th last time I looked, also has a lot of nice used stuff, and they do negotiate. Both stores are a lot of fun.

Everything is negotiable, though I don't think B+H is like a pawn shop. Can't hurt to ask. Are their descriptions accurate? In my 2 transactions with them, yes. Are the prices generally fair, or do they tend to be over the top? Well...they seem to be pretty fair for a big retail store selling used gear. You can always find cheaper stuff, but with B+H you have a little confidence in who you're buying from. At least I do. tv - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

B H
I'm planning to visit B H when I visit New York soon - should be quite an experience if the website is any indication !! A couple of questions: Do they negotiate on prices for used equipment or are their prices set in stone ? Are their descriptions accurate? Are the prices generally fair, or do they tend to be over the top? Thanks, Carl - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
