I found the following camera store on the web, and they have a new Rollei listed for $1400, which is cheaper than the $1800 that places like B&H seem to be asking. <http://www.foto-hobby.de> With the dollar as strong as it is these days, your credit card would probably give you a great exchange rate. I don't know what issues are involved with ordering something from another country, but it's an idea. > From: "Paul T.
