Actually B&H photo has a great reputation- at least in the pro photo world. They tend to have the lowest real prices, and although their approach can sometimes be somewhat rude, have always stood behind their products. I have no relation with them at all, and sometimes they piss me off as well- but they are one of the best photo mailorder houses around. Don't forget amazon prime is $79/year, so you have prepaid for shipping. B&H is likely the same price, but is "charging" $2.50 for shipping and handling. It all comes out to about the same. Amazon is easier to order from, and if you already prepaid shipping, it certainly makes sense to use it. The pricing structure, however, is simply not the different.
