*UPDATED* When is All of the New Stuff Going to Ship?

[subratasenn]

With the Indian Custom Duties and Profit Markup, it will be around $3500/-.

I have checked with local canon dealer and they are not taking any pre-orders of now in India.

I checked with a Canon dealer and he told me that the date Canon 5D Mark IV will go on sales is either 5th September or 8th September. They will know the exact date by tomorrow. August 27th is the date when 5D Mark IV will be launched in India by Canon India in New Delhi through a Press Conference.

The dealers are not sure of the exact pricing yet. They are talking about a ball-park figure of INR 2,60,000/- ($3880) with the lens and INR 2,20,000/- ($3280) for body only. They are expecting to know the maximum retail price (MRP) by Monday.

€3799 would put me off considering pressing the button on this.
It's an incremental upgrade only.
You can get the 5DIII for €2000.
If you were thinking of upgrading to full frame the 5DIII is an all-round great camera.
Back at the time of the 5DII to 5DIII there were flaws to fix.

The new camera will appeal to APS-C users looking to upgrade or those still on a 5DII.
I'm sure there are plenty of 5DIII's coming to the end of life too.
Canon are good at judging the market.
Not attractive enough for me. I think with a 5DIII my money is better spent on getting to better locations rather than better gear if I want to take better pictures.

The price is for the "early-adopters" and seems to be fairly down to $3200 in Spring 2017. Don't forget... the price depends on the market, so just don't buy it right after kickoff.

If I remember that Canon wanted $1600 for the 24-70L f4 IS when it came out, $790 for the 24mm 2.8 IS / 28mm 2.8 IS or the 24-70 2.8L II for $2600.

Now they are down with more real prices...

Received an newsletter from an professional canon shop with an offer to become an premium member to receive one of the first 5D IV released in Germany. No price mentioned, no release date - but release will be imminent.

Phoned with the shop manager (I know him) and he sees the pricing equal to the 5DS R body only and beeing available around 4 weeks after the end of Photokina if you preorder. Big quantities before X-Mas.
But this is not proofed, as they are not allowed to confirm before offical release.

3700€ will be expensive. It is 30% more than US price, if I got the right one.

Sir, 1 1/2 years after the 5DsR release the price is still 3500€ here in Germany. 5% sunk in this time. So, expect an long waiting time...
In foreign countries the price will sink earlier, but then you will loose CPS warranty. So, if you have a lot of expensive gear, you have to decide yourself if you let Canon drain your wallet more or not

Based on the Euro price and the fact Canon whilst wanting a premium also need to be competitive this is the landscape based on the largest UK dealers pricing:-

6D body only £ 1,249
5D MKIII 2,299
5DS 2,699
5DSr 2,899
5D MKIV 3,199 (This was the launch price for the 5DSr)

Competition:-

Nikon 610 £ 1,299
750 1,699
Df 1,899
810 2,139

Sony A7 II 1,349
A7S II 2,899
A7R II 2,999

Anything more than this and barring early adopters / disciples they will lose sales the hike in prices due to brexit (nothing has actually changed yet shows the madness of the market) has already lowered sales and the UK is still a key market globally.

VAT. US prices are without Sales Tax. EU prices are with VAT.

Yes,Sir. But normally only 20%

 

[smorgo]

Yes,Sir. But normally only 20%

Yes, which brings the pre-tax price to within 10% of the US price, which is typical.

It's a fact of life; in part, justified by the additional consumer protection afforded by EU legislation. People are always shocked by the headline prices, but if we're going to use them as the basis for comparison, it's important to understand the differences.

Looking at the above pricing. Canon I feel sure will move the 6D MKII up to the pricing level of the Nikon D750 / Df and may well drop in a Rebel type basic F/F camera more along the lines of the T6s & possibly using older technology with the same type of build quality.

I looked at the 5D Mark III, which is the better comparision, I think. But maybe spring is a bit too early. So you're right. But expect it to be $500 less in the early summerdays...

Hmm, at 4200$can, with tax puts it at 5Kcad. I could easily buy 2 5D III's on the used market and have enough left over for a nice lens. :'(

Impressed. I can only shoot one camera at a time. But to each his own... Hope my 5DIV makes great pictures (good lenses are nice though).

Correction above.

Thanks

My excuse for the typo is I had a lousy day at work - have you ever battered your head off a brick wall by attempting to explain a simple thing to a brainless manager? People get promoted to a level at which they become incompetent and he made the grade a few years ago. :

Yes,Sir. But normally only 20%

sure and what's your additional distrution costs, taxes,etc as well added in there as far as the "cost of doing business" in europe.

There is a cake, a stupid manager, a smart manager and Hercules.
Question: Who is going to eat the cake?
Answer: The stupid manager. The other two are mythical persons ;D ;D ;D

[hajiaru]

nobody is surprised of its price

it would cost about the same price as the 5DS-R

really weird

in dubai : Canon EOS 5D Mark III Body USD 2,123 Canon EOS 5DS R Body USD 2,858 Canon EOS 5DS USD 2,559 .

Re: When is All of the New Stuff Going to Ship?

Does this mean stock will be available in September?

No.

It means deliveries will begin to the 100K or so photographers who pre-ordered. Expect stock to be on the shelves after Christmas, maybe a little sooner if sales are slow, so if you want one, pre-order. B&H and Amazon tend to get more pre-orders than they can fill, they are the last place I'd pre-order a new camera. Since its full price everywhere, contact your local camera shop as soon as its announced, and put in your order, you may find that you get a camera sooner.

Nah. I never pre-ordered and was able to get high demand stuff like 5D2 or 24-70 2/8 II right away. Just gotta hit the right places and you'll get one in plenty of time for fall sports, weddings, foliage, etc, first week of release.

 

[LetTheRightLensIn]

So ... If I open a really big store and I get stock from Canon ... a 5D MKIV ... will be delivered to me for 1700 dollars???
Anyone up for a partnership? we open the shop online ...

Canon won't deliver to you if you will sell for under its MSRP.

they won't deliver it to you AGAIN
the first time they don't know what you will do
