Re: POLL: What will be the 70d's price tag?
I guess it will be 1400$. This is within the reach of the 7100d. It is also quite a bit below the 6D. I think the 7DII will be priced very close to the 6D; so 1400 is a good number for the 70D.
We will see tomorrow.

Uh oh, I voted what I thought it would be, not what it should be . . . maybe Canon's tryin' to figure out how much they can squeeze us for ;D
I'm not just one noid, I'm a paranoid . . . it's too bad they don't have cyclical/simultaneous release cycles. I'm definitely going to swap out my crop body this year, but I'm not moving this time until I see what happens with the 7DmkII (specifically price wise).
Oh well, if wishes were fishes, the sea would be full

Looks like I was high by 100 or so- at least comparing the t5i body only to the kit, it's 750 vs. 1099, which would put body-only about $1300.

It's in Canadian $: converted to USD it should be $1200, so the same more or less of the D7100.alan_k said:

btw, the ban cannot be practically enforced: one has simply to use a proxy, for example torbrowser, to hide one's true IP address. :-X

Re: POLL: What will be the 70d's price tag? RESULTS ARE IN!
The price in the picture is the kit price with lens, and even that changed to the latest [cr] - obviously Canon lowered the price in the meantime to counter Nikon...
.... but the pre-order price is released and THE RESULTS ARE IN (this is also in the first post):
25% of you were correct
12% guessed too low
63% guessed too high - don't you Nikon trolls trust our favorite brand to be reasonable
?

xps said:@ Marsu42 I "polled" 1400 €.....
Today, my favourite shop in Munich sent me an "special" pre-offer: 1399.- 70D body only.....
This was the same with the 6d, offical list price €2099, the first offers were €2199 ... I guess due to the smaller market in Germany the shops that really get the cameras first (i.e. not some online discounters) try to make some quick €€€ from people who are desperate for the latest stuff. And then of course there's the weaker € vs. $ vs yen.
Good for me: As a Magic Lantern fan, I'd never buy a new body anyway and wait 6month+ for a ml release, that's why I'm also not that pressed to buy a 6d and can wait for the price to drop some more. As far as I can see it, the 70d will be no competition at all to ff regarding iso noise.

Out of curiosity, how much of that has to do with taxes built into the price (VAT, etc.). In the U.S. the price usually, depending upon state, 7% to 9% added to it (which is why I often buy from B&H because they don't collect Texas sales tax saving me 8.25%).

VAT here is 20% and over Europe it is similar to that, maybe plus or minus 5%. On European prices VAT is always included on the website unless it specifies it.
It is a bit odd though how they price it. Looking at the B&H website the 5DIII costs pretty much the same as over here whereas the 6D is a lot cheaper in the US. The 5DII and 40D I know where a fair bit cheaper in the US. Worst is the 200-400 where the price difference is so big that it would pay for a trip to New York including flights, hotel and dinners for a weekend and it would still come out slightly cheaper
