I am about ready to order a Canon HF100. There is a website listed here above the forum header that lists the camcorder at $309. Most other sites are right around $525. What's up. Too good to be true is normallly good advice. What am I missing or need to look out for? Some sites list "whats in the box". OntimeDigital is the site above with the lowball price and then lists kits. What are the chances at getting the camera and no of the "normally included accesories"? I have heard stories of people getting taken.

Opinions?

Yeah check resellerratings.com. I buy everything from http://www.bhphotovideo.com Most people like B&H (link on the left) or Adorama.com. I won't mess with any other.

B&H and Adorama are both fantastic places to buy from. I would also say amazon as well. http://************************************/img/2465/o09a0208gstn/POTNsmile.gif
