B&H has a $300.00 rebate on the XL2. It was 3499.95 they changed the price to $3599.95 and added a $300.00 instant rebate. Now $3299.95 same price as the XH-A1.

Warren, I just went to site, typed "Canon XL2" in the search window, and it has a price of $2999.95 AFTER instant rebate.

Are you aware of this one? Could this be for a 'used' camera perhaps? Albeit I didn't see anything that suggested it as being used. Also, I received an email from one of the sponsors here on DV1, and he said that it was grey market stuff, if the price was that low. He suggested that that price was below dealer cost.

I've bought items from B&H in the past, and they have always been USA stuff. I would think it would state that in the ad, if it were grey market....hmmmm.

BH Photo video does list it as $2999.95. I don't think B&H would sell gray market hardware. They're usually a very reliable company.
