yes, i hate that companies still get away with price fixing. anyways, i have been very happy for the last 15 years using armatos video in new york. being nearby in nj, they give you a free loaner camera if your goes in for repair. we actually just purchased two ex3’s from them. i had to exchange one of them for bad pixels in the lcd twice. aramtos bent over backwards to get me a new camera each time. ask for dennis…cool guy who seems to be up on the ex3 stuff.
my 2 cents,
