buying in Melbourne Australia

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.dcameras (More info?)

I'm looking to purchase a camera with good zoom and camcorder
or a decent camcorder with good zoom that will give me good stills/video.
total spending approx. $1600 Australian.
Is there a store in Melbourne or Australian internet store worth looking
at??
there seems to be a huge difference in price (cheaper) in american suppliers
to Australian shops with currency exchange factorered in. Feeling ripped
off.
