    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    My guess would be you would also have to buy a warranty and a charger and battery when you call to confirm the order.

    I found two places that had the 18-200 Vr in stock when I trying to get one, and they both had a low price.

    1st place, I was told there were 2 versions of this lens, one for metal mounts, and one for plastic mounts which was $100.00 more. No thanks.

    2nd place, I was told I had to buy a 3 or 5 year warranty before they would ship it. No thanks.

    Go to BEH.com for a look at their used bodies if you want a deal.

    Scum like that should be run out of business and jailed. Unfortunately, they probably have something in fine print that makes what they do totally legal...albeit, shady and completely unethical. There's no substitute for great service and honesty. If you want that, try B&H Photo in NYC. I'm a very happy B&H customer.
