<p>It appears the Canon EOS-1D X is now permanently $5999 in the USA. This was the price of the camera after an $800 mail-in discount during Canon’s last round of rebates.</p>
<p>The new rebates for February no longer list the Canon EOS-1DX, so there’s no further discount beyond the new price.</p>

Good news :) So the upgrade is around the corner I assume?

Imho not necessarily - it's just that with the "premium" tag now shared with the new 5dsr and the high-fps 7d2 available, they have to re-evaluate their new lineup and lower the price accordingly. Last not least, the price drop of the 4k cine version puts pressure onto it from above.

Thanks Marsu42 The great points because I did see the Price drop in the 1DC I'm just curious because I'm thinking of purchasing the 1DX to go with my 5D Mark II & III.
