I bought one yesterday. Was going to order over the net to save the sales tax. I decided to slide over to the store where I do business, telling myself just going to look. Uh huh.

Same deal for me. I was waiting and kept hearing it might not be until next summer... Went ahead and ordered mine last week. Haven't really had an opportunity to put it to good use yet though! It is 112 degrees outside!

Had mine for a week after trying a 50D and 7D. IQ is simply better. My jaw actually opened when I saw the files. I too ordered it new online.

I was in the same position over a year and a half ago, even started a thread about it on POTN, asking if I should wait for 5D Mark III and then just decided to buy one anyway and a year and a half later nothing new has come out! Im way happy with the 5D anyway and really cant shoot on any crop bodies anymore..

Mine arrived last week. Read a few things about how dumb it was to pay full retail for a camera that has been out for 3 years so I'm glad there are others who feel the same way.
I'm loving it so far. I have the 5dc so am used to ff but the quality is much better.
Enjoy your new camera.

What did you pay? I paid $150 more for a new one rather than a mint used one.

You will love your 5DM2. I have had mine for awhile. Last December, a BB employee told me he could get me another body for $700 less than the NY stores. So, I picked up another one as a backup. The 5DM2 is taking over the world. Enjoy.
