CDN down significantly today. So the price cap will reduce.

Significantly is subjective I guess.  It's down a penny.  Of course the dollar dropping a penny is 1% so yes that has to be factored into all purchases. 

Although, I just checked my $3713.87 B&H price I quoted above and as of this moment to exchange CAD to USD for that amount would cost me $3755.09 CAD right now on XE Trade.  Still $180 cheaper than the best price I can get in Canada.

I was going to preorder from weither Henrys or Vistek, but I have decided to wait for in store shopping instead . . I figure it is best to do these things like we did in the good ol days of shopping, and NOT let the manufactureers brainwash us with marketing genious and hype . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

My advice for Nikon and Canon shooters: do not rpeorder! wait for an actual release and then decide what's best. See for yourselves what is the best system for you and see if all the negatives you read about in the www are true or misleading or simply, whatever they are, a result of morons reaching conclusions where there need not be one so hastily.

Don't listen to the "fro Knows" moron who says stuff like "I know a guy that used it hands on. . ." yet he's the one making the danmed video "review."

. . . and for Pete's sake stop looking at all these online samples of ISO this and ISO that. . . . this is soft and that is soft. . .

. . . just wait to get your own hands on the damn thing and take some test shots in the store and see how the camera responds to YOU.

I'm through with this online shindig!

P.S> the Brant Stirton images . . . what a poor excuse for samples! The faulty focus on the oysters, and on the 2 men working the nets . . . don't waste my time, Mr. Pro! NEw AF on final production model?????? Well then use the damn new AF, or stay home next time!!

I pre-ordered it at The Camera Store in Calgary (www.thecamerastore.com). Looking forward to get my hands on this baby.

Well ladies and gentlemen,

The pre orders are in and now we all sit and wait patiently for that (possible?) March 22nd judgement day. Let us know when you get it, or if anything changes.... very exciting times...
