Consider your return policies as well... I just recently bought a new lens for my digital SLR camera... was going to get it from bhphoto.com and would have saved almost $100... but Wolf at Cameron Village gave me a 30 day no questions asked 100% return policy, and being somewhat still newbie to the world of SLR photography, that made the sale. Sometimes it's worth it. Fortunately I did good homework and bought the right lens for myself... 75-300mm USM IS Canon. :)
