B&H Photo Video is now showing a date for availability of the EOS R5 ($3899.00) — their site is giving an expected availability of “Mid February 2021”. We assume this would also apply to new orders placed today. This is great news for those who have been patiently waiting for a camera from B&H — taking advantage of the PayBoo card to save the sales tax.

We’re coming up to 6 months after the release of the EOS R5, and surprisingly the camera is still hard to find with low general availability. Here’s a run-down of the current best options to get your hands on this camera.

• Our street price of $3849 is still in-stock, but stock levels are very low and it should sell out in the next few days. This is from an authorized Canon dealer, with no sales tax collected.

• Amazon is now showing that the camera will be “In stock on February 4th”, so it looks like the next shipment will be arriving soon.

• KEH continues to be a popular option, they show the camera available in Like New condition for $3799 including all the standard accessories. Readers have indicated the camera is indistinguishable from new.

We’re starting to see great used options emerge for the EOS R5. KEH now has two listings for used R5 in Like New and Like New- condition, at $3799.00 and $3699.00 respectively. KEH often rates equipment conservatively so these are likely in amazing condition, and it comes with a KEH 180-day warranty.

• EOS R5 for $3699.00 (LN-)
• EOS R5 for $3799.00 (LN)

A limited quantity are available. According to the listing, it comes with the LP-E6NH Battery, LC-E6 Charger, RF-5 Body Cap, and a ER-EOSR Strap.
