I plan on buying the DA 12-24 f/4 for our upcoming Italy trip. I was going to also order the Tiffen 77mm UV wide angle thin glass filter. I am leaning towards Amazon or Adorama since B&H does not carry this lens. Any other suggestions?

I think those are all good vendors, and it looks like B&H does have it....

I have always had great luck with amazon, and their return policy is very good.

Beach Camera also has them. I've ordered from them before without any problems. The shipping is also free.

Buydig.com is a sister company to Beach and sometimes their prices are a little bit lower.

I have never had anything but Outstanding service from B&H.

Damn, how did I miss the B&H listing. They were my preferred vendor but I already placed my order with Adorama.

By the way, free shipping for most vendors is for the continental US only. Amazon is the exception for most items but it takes several weeks for an order from them to arrive.

If it's any consolation, you live in Hawaii.....
