That\'s a joke right? It\'s funny either way even if you were serious.
$4999 as I predicted. I think we can easily expect the upcoming 1ds4 to be either $8499 or $8999 (which is my bet).
The way the US economy is going it\'ll be more like $9999 by the time it ships. The looney will be $1.20US and the South sea Peso $1.10US soon.
There are lots of ways to think about price. When looking at the announced price (which is often higher than the street price) Consider this....
Canon 1D ($6499) - 4.15 Mp = $1566/Mp
Canon 1Ds ($7999) - 11.1 Mp = $720/Mp
Canon 1D MII ($4499) - 8.2 MP = $548/Mp
Canon 1DMIII ($4199) - 10.1 Mp = $416/Mp
Canon 1DMIV ($4999) - 16.5 Mp = $303/Mp
Comparing these four cameras for image quality, noise level and features....it is not even worth the comparison.
Adjusting for inflation only, the cost of the Canon 1D in 2009 would be as follows...
$7,900.93 using the Consumer Price Index
$7,777.51 using the GDP deflator
$8,387.29 using the value of consumer bundle
$7,707.09 using the unskilled wage
$8,547.98 using the nominal GDP per capita
$9,124.33 using the relative share of GDP

So, are we being ripped off on the price?
