Save you blood pressure, Eagle Joe is on the money. Also reseller ratings is a great resource for other online purchases. There are tons of threads and a few blogs dedicated to Brooklyn based bait and switch e-stores. Don't be fooled by the very well designed pages, even the BBB certificates. Check them out and remember the advice your momma gave you, "if it sounds too good to be true, it is."

Debbie,B&H; photo is still giving the Nikon discount. http://www.bhphotovideo.com Their price for the d3100 + 18-55 AF s DX VR kit, plus the 55-200 AF S DX VR is $718.00 This is $20 higher than the Amazon price, but right now, they are out of stock, and as I stated above, I don't think they are honoring the discount any longer. Put the d3100 in your cart, then to the left you will see various lens discounts listed. Toward the bottom, you will see "save up to $100" on select lenses. The "VR" version is $119 and the non VR is $79. Good Luck!

I compared the Canon SX30is with the Nikon P100, and the Nikon CLEARLY won when I was comparing image quality. I returned the Canon, and when I found out the P500 was being released, I also returned the Nikon P100 and will patiently wait for the P500. Where did you get your Canon? Some places have a 90 day return policy (Sams).

I bought a cheap one from Amazon. Not as smooth as a Nikon one, but not bad at all. About a quarter of the price.

Probably. I have noticed this camera drop in price dramatically and it is being updated. I don't know what your problem is but I returned mine when it would not take a pny brand memory card. Was told by Nikon tech it only uses a sandisk brand and that nikons are this way even if I bought another. I also had issues with a wireless card in this camera but that may have been the card as much as the camera. Otherwise, it is a good basic camera but I am moving up to a canon t4i so I can do more and have flexibility with add ons, cards, etc.

I shoot event (moving) and museum exhibits (static) and have nothing but praise for Nikon. The D800 has made my work MUCH easier. The three dimensional (51) focus is dead on most of the time, and it is fast. More importantly, color temperatures are much more accurate than my old D3x. In mixed lighting the D800 is just a better "guesser" than older bodies.I personally don't know anyone who had the focus problem, but most of the folks I know we smart enough NOT to buy the D800 until the reviews were out and the problems fixed.

Anyone from Amazon, Is the rebate coming back? I've been waiting for it because I would like to buy from Amazon, but if not, I'll go to another retailer who is offering the $300 on the D300 + 16-85.Thanks.

I Have upgraded from D300. I find the D=600 to be a good camera with full frame capability which is what I wanted to get. I would recommend it.

I just upgrade from D3100 to D600 recently. Except the price and the size/weight of the camera body, D600 is way better than d3100. Specially in those low-light conditions, d600 has significantly better performance than D3100.

I saw that also. I want to say the ones I had checked were in the 308**** range if I'm remembering right. 30** for sure. Bummer. I'm running out of summer and I've got the itch for a DSLR. I may go for the Canon T1i. But I really like the user menu Nikon uses. That and the pictures seem better.

Yes, If I can find the same item at Amazon with lower price or similar price, I always buy at Amazon. Amazon is definitely the best online store with fastest shipping and reliable return policy.I am thinking to buy a new camera at Amazon now - maybe Canon Powershot SD880 IS as a friend recommends. I wish the price for this camera at Amozon would be more competitive.

"Amazon" is listed as an authorized Nikon dealer. Be sure to go to the Nikon website and register when you get your camera.

If you want basically the same prices, order from B&H.; If you are a NAPP member you get free shipping. They also have a superb return policy and will work with you on software. Something Amazon does not since they don't have the photography smarts that B&H; has. I buy from both regularly. [B&H; doesn't sell books. LOL]

I too have wanted to buy a T2i for a while, ever since I noticed the announcement in February. Then, it was seemingly always out of stock at Amazon. Perhaps I haven't waited long enough, or maybe it just wasn't meant to be. Although I have bought 5 Canon cameras over the years, and I considered myself a Canon loyalist, I am beginning to wonder if maybe I should buy a Nikon as my first digital SLR.

The 30D, as noted by others, is a much sturdier camera. In addition, keep in mind that it shoots at a faster rate (5 fps), has a more ergonomic set of controls, and shoots better in low light-- ranging all the way up to 3200 ISO after expansion.I wouldn't be surprised to see Canon offer a similar jump to 10.1 MP or higher in this price range soon, more to compete with Nikon's D80 and D200 than to compete with their own product.That said, I'm adding the XTi as a backup to my existing 20D.

The more expensive one is from Amazon and the cheaper one is from another vendor selling through amazon. The cheaper one also comes with a flex strap for attaching the camera to certain things. They are both the same it just looks like the amazon price went back up after blackfriday and this other vendor kept it the same.
