p.1 #1 · 5D III and 5DIII Kit: Best Price

Amazon has 5D III for $2999 and the kit with 24-105 for $3299!! The kit price in particular is the best I have seen from an authorized Canon dealer so far.

I just bought the kit. I can't wait to see all the positives I have heard about 5D III for myself.

I saw the deal also on slickdeals.net and I'm tempted, but keep telling myself my 5d2 is doing the job for me still. Still, a very good deal. Wonder if it's the trend with the body tho with the 6d being released etc.

That's exactly why I held off this long. But hearing about the improved keeper rate from everyone here made me decide to bite the bullet and give it a shot.

Wow!!!! I just went to grab the link that I had on my computer from my transaction and realized the price went up by $400??!!!!! I posted it literally seconds after I saw the price on Amazon for the benefit of all FMers, but I regret to say the price changed. Hope at least some of you were able to grab it while the lower price was available.

I was happy to pick up body and 24/105 late last evening for $3299.
Anyone interested in the zoom?

maybe you should not tell here you got the kit for 3299 ...
Do you still like your 5D III, now after it got outperformed by 6D in IQ?

Lars is right and that is exactly why I grabbed the kit even though I got the 24-105 lens as part of the 5D Mk II kit, as one of the early adopters of 5D II.
