They have them for $899 - they are parallel imports, but get the extended warranty and it's a fine purchase. I have bought several things from them and can't speak highly enough of them.<BR/><BR/>What a wonderful journey you are about to embark on - and yes, the door to your apartment looks very enchanting!Jennifer Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16279469629213813760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7679700176992294802.post-31746475169147563842008-08-29T14:42:00.000+10:002008-08-29T14:42:00.000+10:00Oh how beautiful!!!

All his recommendations and reviews were spot on and we did all the bookings ourselves, which was scary at first but awesome. It's worth getting just for the restaurant suggestions and walking tours anyway, I think. Just an idea!Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15037240260765239447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7679700176992294802.post-64669991389479695922008-08-25T06:51:00.000+10:002008-08-25T06:51:00.000+10:00Ha, about 10 minutes after I'd posted that comment...Ha, about 10 minutes after I'd posted that comment I'd bought it :) <BR/>At digitalcamerawarehouse.com.au<BR/>I've bought from them before so I know it will actually arrive!! <BR/>They've got the body for $975 - not much less - but it comes with the Canon 3Yr Extended Warrenty.

I spent so long thinking about getting the 400D, so now that the 450's out - I'm going with that one. (My little post-show reward for if I actually sold anything and could pay off my gallery fees too!)<BR/>I've only just started looking. no idea what to go for with the lenses. Please post if you find somewhere that has the best deal! I've only found Ted's Camera house so far, but haven't been looking too much yet. Will let you know if I find anywhere with a crazy deal!!<BR/>Good luck with everything :) You're renos look beautiful so far!Alex Louisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17309745455900747180noreply@blogger.com
