$3500.. I see a lot of people selling their 5d2/7d combo to get this.


No way - 7D is AWESOME for sports. 5D is awesome for everything else. The 5D Mark III won't replace the 7D for most people.

61 AF points 41 cross points....wow even D800 only itty bitty 19 clumped in the middle...:lol:. Kickass AF Canon.

41 cross points!
If there are big advancements in ISO performance, Canon will be onto a winner IMO. 22mp is plenty if the IQ is where it should be

Yup and assuming it's the same array as the 1D-X...it's a wide spead of cross AF sensors across the View finder frame too!

Yep that's why I buy all my stuff from the US.

I have a solution for you, sell all your stuff to me - I'll pay your paypal fees if you mark it as gift :) :)

That's the funny thing, on the last lens I went to all the trouble of figuring out the fees and the total would have been $2200 to him and he passed on it saying that was too much.

I disagree. The Nikon grips look way better than the Canon ones. The Canon one looks cheap and it doesn't blend in well with the body.

I don't think so. They don't blend in better or look better. Neither the Canon or the Nikon has the advantage there. Kinda hard to blend in with that big wheel going on.

I don't know what lens your talking about.. The 70-200 Mark II?

You have to remember he would be taking into account Australian customs fees and taxes which are 15% if the total is over $1000.

That's why I said I'd happily pay the paypal fees if you marked them as gift or $990 :)

P.s I'm serious lol

looks like the speculation of wireless radio triggers built in might be true, with the release of a new flash (might be built into the grip).

That's the lens. I wound up selling it here. I mark stuff as US only but will help people out but I won't fudge customs forms. I'm one of those people who get nailed for everything even if no one else gets busted for it.
