5D Price Drop (official)

Canon Hong Kong just posted a press release dropping the official price of a 5D from US$2320 (HK$17980) to US$2190 (HK$16980) with the kit dropping from US$3223 (HK$24980) to US$3094 (HK$23980).

Cant wait for the new 5D. This is a sure sign its on its way.

Press release here

sweet.. looking forward to the new 5D

Imagine when it has double rebates. It was as low as $1750 here in Canada with them.

I, for one, welcome our new $1500 used 5Ds hitting the market.

Wow! Hong Kong doesnt offer those rebate schemes, but stores generally sell at decent discounts.

They'll be cheaper than 1500 once the MK2 gets released. The market will be absolutely flooded with MK1's.

I agree. I can't wait to snatch up a couple 5D bodies at dirt cheap prices. I don't think it will be much longer before we begin seeing 5d's in the sub-$1000 price range.
