<strong>Unable to confirm as of yet</strong>

<a href="http://photorumors.com/2011/01/01/canon-rumors-us-price-increase-plus-new-compact-cameras-for-ces-2011/"><strong>PR</strong></a> has posted a report that Canon USA will be raising prices as much as 10% come February 1, 2011. I have been unable to confirm that is going to happen. The reported reason is to combat the weak US dollar.</p>
<p>It’s completely believable.</p>

Didn't the same thing happen in 2008?

I wonder if the more recently released lenses, such as the 70-300L, will also be hit by this or if their price already takes this into account?

apparently it does ... which I'm surprised to see. everybody was talking about the 70-300 L coming down in price very soon, but I wonder if that will still happen.

also wonder if the new superteles are going to get jacked up in price. slow to appear and more expensive than expected seems like a nasty new year surprise from Canon
