We’ve seen another overnight price increase from Canon USA on many popular Canon RF and EF lenses. Items have gone up across the authorized dealer network, with most items going up between $100 and $200. Included in the price increase is the RF 100-500mm F4-7.1L IS USM<\/a>, which is seeing its second price increase in five months<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Official communications from Canon to dealers referred to an “ever-changing market situation” driving the price increases — the camera industry continues to be plagued by supply chain and distribution challenges, as well as the increased cost of manufacturing with COVID restrictions and measures in-place.<\/p>\n

Refurbished prices for the lenses have also seen a similar price increase. It looks like Amazon<\/a> is still showing the old prices (for the time being).<\/p>\n
