I have been saving for a Fuji X-E1 but these make me want to rethink that because the main complaint of the X-E1 and X-Pro1 has been the AF is a tad slow and the lack of good workflow (being solved with next iteration of capture one pro)

If they update the X-E1 with this new AF I am definitely sold not to mention the slew of other features better sensor 1080p60 focus peaking

Pricewatch Deals / Decent deal on new Canon 24-70 II

Crutchfield has it for 2299.99 but they have crutchfield rewards that let you earn 5% back in crutchfield credit if you redeem 3000 points.

You get 1 point per dollar.

Currently they are offering double points so that is 4600 points = $230 in Crutchfield credit if you enter the code DOUBLE at checkout.

You can earn an additional 2% if you go through Fatwallet a cash back referral site = $46

so 2299.99 -46 = $2254 + you get $230 in credit at crutchfield.

Only bad thing is they are on backorder at the moment.  I was debating on pulling the trigger and this made me do it.  Combine that with any credit card rewards you are getting and it is just a hair over $2K.

Not too shabby if you are looking for a 1DX either.
