The 5DSR scores only 50 points - 5DIV and 5DII are 295!
I see different values - 5DSR is 300 points, 5DII 125. Be aware it changes the points value only when you click the item in the list.

But I would like to see the full list for my country in advance so I can see whether it might be worth for me to register or not. Ideally as .pdf for download. I dont want to register and give Canon all my data for free and do all the work to fill in everything only to find out that my total is 99 points ...

I've corrected this in the orignial post as well.
"We have over 3,000 Canon products eligible for registration - including most of our cameras, lenses, printers, and even accessories. Remember to add both old and new equipment, and even Canon products bought outside of your home country could give you points."
It would be a long list...
Free? Gold costs $100 per year in theUSA.A few days ago I received an e-mail from Canon CPS Germany, that they are changing their membership qualification system to a system of points.
I suppose this is regarding to CPS Europe, too.
Until now you needed at least two semi/professional bodies and at least three L lenses to sign up.
Right now they have changed this to a system of points where even consumer bodies, EF-S lenses and speedlites get points.
For example: a 5D3 is worth 235 points and a EF 40 STM 15 points.
Depending on your overall number of points you can achieve different levels of membership with different advantages.
Here are some of these advantages in Germany (other countries might have a different system)
And the best of it: this service stays free of charge.
- red (starting from 0 points)
- priority support helpdesk (only)
- silver (500 points)
- priority support helpdesk
- 5 days repair
- discount on maintenance services
- gold (1000 points)
- priority support helpdesk
- 3 days repair
- free loan unit if repair takes longer
- 1 free sensor cleaning per year and body
- discount on maintenance services
- platin (1600 points)
- priority support helpdesk
- 2 days repair
- free loan unit if repair takes longer
- 1 free sensor cleaning per year and body
- discount on maintenance services
For further details please refer to your local CPS homepage.

$ 100 per year IS cheap.Free? Gold costs $100 per year in theUSA.
You misunderstand; the $100 per year is to qualify as a gold member. We still have to pay for repairs, but as gold members we get a discount. This discount was significantly reduced about 3 years ago.$ 100 per year IS cheap.
Leica in Germany charges about $ 100 PER REPAIR if you want your gear back within a week!
I understood what you were saying!You misunderstand; the $100 per year is to qualify as a gold member. We still have to pay for repairs, but as gold members we get a discount. This discount was significantly reduced about 3 years ago.
Now I understand. I have the flu and associated sleep deprivation so I was slower than usual. Thanks!I understood what you were saying!
What I meant, is that Leica customers have to pay for express repair:-
-The cost of repair (Extremely high!)
-PLUS $ 100 for a one week repair each and every time you need it(otherwise, get ready to wait at least 1-2 month!!!)
While, in the US, gold membership means quick repairs, and costs $ 100 PER YEAR, no matter how many items you send them. Obviously, this doesn't include the cost for the repair itself.
Yes, it's free, even Platinum. But there are more benefits in the US.Free? Gold costs $100 per year in theUSA.
Yep! In Europe there is no extra charge for CPS but as others statedFree? Gold costs $100 per year in theUSA.
So each continent or country has it's advantages AND disadvantages.Yes, it's free, even Platinum. But there are more benefits in the US.
As a US citizen, I can 100% agree with you!So each continent or country has it's advantages AND disadvantages.
I hope for all of you - and us - that everything will turn to the better - soon.As a US citizen, I can 100% agree with you!
