In terms of marketing I think the real reason for the approach is to get people talking about your product. Once they decide if they want ice cream they can decide on vanilla or strawberry. Canon hasn't really done this with the 5D lineup before, but eventually I think it will come in even more assorted flavors...


I hope they do. I could really use a fast frame sports camera without all the 1DX baggage.

Just received the tracking #.... arrives tomorrow. Nice! I think I'm almost a little more excited to shoot the new Zeiss 135 than the 5Ds.... nah.... it's a tie!

Good times!

With three Zeiss lenses, I understand that. I constantly scheme how to upgrade my MP 50/2 with an Otus 55.

Congratulations on the purchase! The unboxing is boring - looks exactly like the 5D3. And it will work just like the 5D3 (do check the menus tho). Its when you import that the magic happens.

If I order the 5dsr. From Henry's. What kind of import tax would be required. If anyone knows?

Monito wrote:
Fred, get a commission setup from Henry's too. With exchange rate, that is a very good deal.

The two cameras have been on pre-order for more than a week (earliest I looked) at Henry's in Canada.

5Ds CDN$ 4100 = US$ 3265 http://www.henrys.com/89359-CANON-EOS-5DS-D-SLR-BODY.aspx

5DsR CDN$ 4300 = US$ 3424 http://www.henrys.com/89362-CANON-EOS-5DS-R-D-SLR-BODY.aspx

I'm pretty sure Henry's has a shipping depot in the US.

But please order your cameras from B&H so I can get a 5Ds sooner

Looks like reviewers like Lloyd Chambers get an R delivered to them from B&H before us paying folk!
Rrrargh! He usually dislikes Canon cameras.

I haven't heard a darn thing from my dealer yet though.


Still nothing?

I just received my shipment notification

Edit: Congrats, Anders!

Nothing. I have just bugged them (Goecker) with an email asking whether they will make a status to all their pre-order customers. But they have created some work for themselves as the pre-orders are not pre-paid and now they have to sort out who will actually take advantage of their pre-order - and who will not.

They told me that a surprisingly large number of people didn't take advantage of their pre-orders with the Nikon D800/D800E back then.So I guess there is hope, but it could take some time to get resolved if they have to call every one. I didn't pre-order before April 5th, BTW.

Or maybe I should just take a quick trip to Norway?

I used to know the general route - or key destinations such as the local hospital - of my delivery guys so I can connect with them early. Then I had packages held at the local depot so I could just grab the package on the way into work. Now I have a virtual office for the photo business so its just caught early at the front desk.

Heh, love those waits... but soon you'll have it in your hands!

I was going to do an unboxing video, but as none of my cameras can shoot 4K video, I didn't think anyone would watch it.

Hmmm! 3 days and not so much as a little quick status update on the pre-orders from my dealer. We only have two Canon pro dealers in Denmark, maybe it is about time I start my own shop!

Time to buy a new cell phone. My Nokia Icon records 4K and in surround sound.

That's too bad, Cliff. I know Jeffrey will be disappointed. Especially after Stan's useless L-bracket photos.

Maybe you're right... mine can't even do lo-def video.

None of the big norwegian houses have anything official yet. Interfoto is the only one with a date, unofficially in stock 01.07.

Kind of unexpected that mine got shipped so quickly, I ordered very late. It might be related to that I bought it bundled with the 24-70 2.8 II, for the cashback campaign. Maybe they prioritized bundled orders.
