Canon USA must have noticed the import\/grey market craziness<\/a>, because they will respond with a significant price drop and a new slate of aggressive rebates starting tomorrow, March 1st.<\/p>\n

They will also switch from mail-in rebates to instant rebates for bodies. They will additionally increase the mail-in rebate values on lenses (and add more lenses to the rebate.)<\/p>\n

Bodies<\/b><\/p>\n

Canon USA will drop the MAP (or minimum advertised price) on the EOS 5D Mark III<\/a> by $300 and the EOS 6D<\/a> by $100. They’re also converting the current $300 mail-in rebate<\/b> to a $300 instant rebate<\/b>! Finally, they’re initiating a $100 instant rebate on the EOS 7D Mark II<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here’s where all the street prices<\/a> will end up as of tomorrow (all rebates are instant<\/b>, the price you pay is the final price). We’re now taking street price inquiries at the new prices — brand new USA models from Canon USA authorized dealers, free shipping and a 1-year Canon USA warranty.<\/p>\n
