Rumors of a price drop on Canon EOS 30D and 5D DSLRs

Word is slowly spreading that Canon will be introducing a price cut on two of its current Digital SLR Cameras: the 30D and 5D. Most people were probably holding off until after PMA to pick up a new body and therefore sales may have been a little lower than expected (reinforced by Canon’s recent extension of their Fall 2006 rebates program).

Hopefully for those of you out there that were wanting to grab either of these cameras this will help you out. In fact, it should help us all by pushing the market down a little bit and making older bodies like the stellar 20D and the lower end 350D and 400D a little more affordable - not everyone needs or can afford a 1Dmk3 or 1DsmkII !

This is just a rumor, I’ll let you know if anything solid gets announced.

    Currently the D30 and D40 are priced about $1500 (with the same IS lens). Why would anyone buy the D30 then. I’m waiting for teh price drop.
