thinking of picking up a Canon 350D and 17-85 mm EF-S lens, pero parang sobrang mahal ng canon stuff dito? i'm not too comfortable buying from quiapo and gray-market dealers. from the official canon.ph website:

Canon PowerShot A95: P27,500
Canon PowerShot S60: P34,500
Canon PowerShot S70: P41,950
Canon PowerShot G6: P47,500
Canon PowerShot Pro1: P59,950
Canon EOS-350D with bundled 18-55 mm EF-S lens: not quoted in the site, but last time i asked in the canon showroom in megamall, it was around P68,000 if i remember right (the 17-85mm EF-S lens isn't even available here yet)

in the US, the prices from a major retail store (hence, hardly any discounts), Best Buy, are as follows:

Canon PowerShot A95: US$300 -> P16,800 [difference of P10,700]
Canon PowerShot S60: US$400 -> P22,400 [difference of P12,100]
Canon PowerShot S70: US$450 -> P25,200 [difference of P16,750]
Canon PowerShot Pro1: US$800 -> P44,800 [difference of P15,150]
Canon EOS-350D with 18-55 kit lens: US$1,000 -> P56,000

and in Hong Kong, based on the official Canon.hk site (no discounts too):

Canon PowerShot A95: HK$2,780 -> P20,016 [difference of P7,484]
Canon PowerShot S70: HK$4,280 -> P30,816 [difference of P11,134]
Canon PowerShot Pro1: HK$6,980 -> P50,256 [difference of P9,694]
Canon EOS-350D with 18-55 kit lens: HK$7,680 -> P55,296

mas okay bang bumili sa Hong Kong? if so, is there an international warranty (that Canon Philippines will honor) available?
