    Most of my purchases have been through B&H. A couple of lens purchases from Norman Camera www.normancamera.com/ have saved me a few $$$ and seem to be reputable.

    Check out this link. It is a searchable database of vendors and can give you a good idea of what others think of their service and sales. www.resellerratings.com/

    Be sure you understand the difference between a "USA" and "Grey Market/ Import" lens in deciding your purchase. Basically the USA lens has its warranty through Canon, the imported is not.
