Ouch.

And don't forget about the used dslrs either. I keep getting further away from picking up a 1DS Mark II.

Really? I've seen a few offered lately and the pricing has been where it has been for a while. The 1Ds2 has been out of production so long I don't see these price increases affecting it much.

Adorama raised the prices on the 5D2 body and kit this afternoon to match the B&H prices. The kit is still in stock at Amazon for $3299.

Feeling quite secure standing pat with my 40D with fewer than 3000 clicks on it. I have to wonder how high they will go before the bubble bursts they go tumbling down to reality and how many tears will be shed when they do.

FUDGE!!!!

(Pardon my language, but this is getting out of hand)

as long as the 60d stays at $999 or lower for the next month im happy =D but i did notice the price increases as well

I wouldn't count on that. Even when the supply issues are resolved there is still the exchange rate problem and prices were going up before the earthquake.

=X so you saying i should buy it soon?

I don't think that $999 price is going to last long. Also, right now you can buy the kit refurbished from the Canon store for a little more and sell the lens. They do have the body only listed for $799 but the body only has been out of stock for the last week or so.

yeah...should have bought a 100 7D bodies from amazon when they were $1480...would have had a 800mm L by now...if I could find it in stock

I'm still kicking myself from not jumping on the 60d kit for $1079 before the "rebates" pushed prices back up. Really, really, really kicking myself. Trying to be patient for a day when we see that again, but it sounds like it may be quite awhile...

Maybe a new model is released before that happens?

Cheaper at Crutchfield, and shipped free anywhere within and outside of CONUS:

Maybe some lenses are still cheaper at Crutchfield?

Opps! Never mind; out of stock. I was told that they were selling like hot cakes when B&H and others raised the price.

I wanted to buy then, too! And didnt but couldn't hold off any longer so I bought at the $1299 price and couldn't be happier. This is such a nice camera (for me)! In the week I've owned this I already bought a 1.4 TC (used with a lens i already owned) and "nifty fifty"

I struggled with buying new or refurb and don't think you'd be disappointed either way.
