$400 above retail, for a grey market product?

Wrongo!
That would be $400 under retail on the R, $750 on the S.

I sure hope Canon wasn't betting on 5DS/R revenue to fund the development of the 1DX2...😜

That price is US$400 more than I paid for my 5D SR at retail... and mine has the bonus of having a valid warranty.

Gray market prices are always lower. Who would buy gray market products if the price was the same? ;-)

With the devaluation of the Chinese currency, gray market importers can cut prices even further.

Exactly. The way that gray market works depends on currency value differentials and differing list prices in different regions. These "local" gray market import prices are not set by Canon, whose list prices have not changed. The offering prices from non-gray-market dealers are also still basically unchanged.

(However, currency adjustments may create some incentive for Canon to lower some prices sooner than they might have otherwise. And, by the way, you'll see the gray market pricing come to almost any popular photography product fairly soon after its introduction.)

More in line with competitive Sony A7R II. More reasonable but still expensive prices for both the 5Ds and the 5DsR.

Good for you.
Except that Fred's post references US prices.

If you love paying that much more for the same USA-warranty product that I bought, then good for you... I just wish I was independently wealthy like you guys are!

Aden Camera in Toronto... but most retailers will do better than Canon's MAP if you ask them...there's a pretty big markup on those cameras.

5DsR turn out to be around $3,284.31. That is with today XE exchange rate. However, paypal use their own rate (which is much lower). Are they shipping to the US too?

Damn..i also notice that they do sell the Canon CN-E lenses...Sweet price.
