    Just out of curiosity, how are you coming up with $149 for the 28mm f2.8 Pancake? Every time I add it to cart, it drops with quantity of 5, but when I change it to one, the price shows at $179.

      It was a price mistake for about 30 minutes, the store has since fixed their prices.

    If this was a price mistake, will they actually honor the prices if we bought them? I bought RF 70-200 2.8 for $1529, 100-500L for $1619, and RF 100 2.8L for $449!!

      I have been waiting and would have bought a 100-500 at that price too. Hope they honor it for you!

      I was just about to buy the RF100 for $449 and the price updated to $699. So I think it’s fair to say it was a mistake.

    Wow, the R6m2 price is too good to be true. Even the R7 price is fantastic.

    Nabbed a RF 100mm 2.8 Macro L for $450, that’s been on my wishlist for a few years now. It was cheaper than its older EF cousin.

    Already own an R8, but the R6mkII mistake-price was extremely tempting. I did miss out on it, as I didn’t see it before they shut it down. Saved me from wringing my hands thinking about it.

    The R7 is still $800/$1000 w/ 18-150 — not a bad combo.

    The R8 at $900 is also a very good deal, if it comes back in stock.

      Got a shipping notification for the RF 100mm, so not a bad deal.

    I picked up an R5 at $1749 and got a shipping confirmation with tracking.

        Yes, ‘ve been using them both for over 9 months now
        Probably it was once-in-a-lifetime chance
