Buydig.com is the same company as Beachcamera.com, which is where I ordered mine, but cheaper.

Kit: LINK

Since you are listed as living in LA you might try Canoga Camera (www.canogacamera.com). They basically match B&H prices, but would be local to you. They are out in the valley (Canoga Park).

Buying local is fun, but if you are trying to avoid the taxes by going mailorder then just find a reputable dealer thats in WA/OR so you don't have to wait for east coast shipping.

No I didn't.. the links work fine

No doubt.. buying local is fun and it's nice to support your local photo spot. Tax in CA is almost 8%. That's over $50 on a $700 item :T
