Websites attract you to something...and this is what it is. Dealers don't have prices...because the camera is not ready to ship...so, why list a price you don't have, for a product that isn't out yet. Create an early 'bookmark' on the site...so that when a price/product is received...you can get tons of preorders. That's how business works. Sell the most at the appearance, at the highest price...so you can afford to lose money over the long term...when sales have diminished. Even then, you made such a large profit, that the loss on them is non-existant; and each camera you sell thereafter is pure profit.

Strategy, my man, strategy. I would wait for a year and a half to buy this version, at half to 2/3 the price, new.

Later.

Is that the 'official' price? No. Might you have to pay more, when it shows up? Maybe. Who knows?

17's a good company though. I got my 1D2N there and they treated me well.

PS - They're not doing rain checks at the $0.00 price, in case you were wondering.;)

Yup, I tried. But you think that they could have posted "price TBD" ;)


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.
