Refurbished items from the Canon Direct Store come with a 1-year Canon USA warranty. Unfortunately, the Canon store does collect tax to most states; for the EOS 5D Mark IV please also consider our street price of $2999 brand new which may be less than the refurbished price once you factor in the tax.
I think if the 850 announcement didn’t happen, I would be considering boring in the refurb 5D4. But now I feel like I should wait before buying anything.
I wouldn’t wait on Canon. Love them I may, but respond to the market they do not.
Are you saying you are waiting to see if all the hype behind the 850 is real? Or are you saying you are waiting to see if Canon finally steps back up to the plate and starts knocking ’em out of the ballpark again? Sadly, I really feel that they are banking on the people that are invested heavily in their lenses to hold them up. Rightfully so, they make good glass. But, that means that all their clients are going to jsut get older and older, as Sony continues to grab more of the newer crowd away from them. Canon holds the entry level market, but that is a shrinking demographic thanks to cell phone cameras getting better and better, or at least good enough for people that jsut want a picture and don’t care about quality as much (sadly the world shifted that way too). And for people that are making the transition from entry to enthusiast or pro, well, how hard is it to leave a Rebel with kit lenses behind in favor of a Sony or maye even the Nikon 810 (or 850 if it holds up). It is time for them to accept that they can have a solid mid-level and even more solid high end. The 6D2 could have been the camera that rocked the entire photography world, and that is why it was such a let down. I didn’t care myself, but I am saying, opportunity was there, but they missed it to protect the sales of a camera they will eventually replace anyway.
