less than anyone else. Is that correct? Did they make a mistake on the website? If not, that seems like a pretty good deal. I have been looking for a good deal on the Canon 500mm and came upon this. Too good to be true or can B&H really do this because of volume sales?

    Actually that price is the $2,000 USD smaller price. What's up with that? Everywhere else is more like $6,9999.00.

    I figured it out.
    That sigmonster for apparently $2,000 less than everywhere else is only for the Sigma DSLR mount. All other mounts are back up at the regular price. I knew it was too good to be true. :cry
