I love my 1V-HS, lot's of great memories. I paid full price for it in 2001...back then dropping over two grand on a body very much out of the ordinary. Well anyway, fast forward to today. I was re-upping my CPS membership and I noticed the 1V/1V-HS no longer are worth anything (it had been worth a point). I guess canon really is done support film :(

Anyway Amazon still has stock of new ones...sadly they sell new for about ten times the rices of used on EBay.

I checked Amazon USA, they are not selling them. Only Beach Audio is listing new ones thru Amazon. Like all discontinued bodies, new ones that have been gathering dust in a warehouse for years are able to bring higher prices.

That's a 1V, not even a 1V-HS. And yes...

I loved my 1V. Had it until about five years ago.
