hmm. that is a good point. if the OP cold wait a few weeks they could save about $600 or so.

One is for me and the other is for my husband (my assistant) LOL :lol: Also, to have a back-up camera for shoots or if (god forbid) something should happen to one we'll still have the other.

Ask the retailer/e-tailer whether they would be able to post date the receipt for you...to Oct. 15th or 16th. For so much gear, they 'should' accomodate you...and then you may be able to collect rebates. Just a thought. Congrats on the purchase(s).

Not sure, but it's worth a try. If not, photo editing software is a great thing...as are photocopiers. :lol: But, you didn't hear that from me.

:lol: Hear what? From who? LOL :lol:
I was actually thinking the same thing though. :o Might have to "adjust" a number or two if there are that big of rebates out there....lord knows my credit card company would sure appreciate the rebates. :rolleyes: LOL :lol:
