I concur. I saw the prices, but then I saw the words \"Street Price\". That\'s like saying MSRP. Who actually pays MSRP? I would be very inclined to speculate, that the actual prices will be less than the prices, that are being quoted.
How can the newest gen 400 cost\' more than the 800/5.6 That doesn\'t make much sense. I would bet, that the 400 will retail for around 8.5K. The current 400 is 7.2K. And I wouldn\'t be surprised if the 300 will end up retailing for closer to 5.5K, maybe 6K, since the current 300 is 4.5K. If these street prices were to hold, then I would suspect, that Canon won\'t sell many of the Expensive Big Whites.
While I\'m speculating, I will make an educated guess, that the New 500 will sell for 7.5K, and the 600, for around 9.5K.
Just my 2¢.
