realised that it may be true in singapore after reading a couple of threads about canon grips! one of the reason i was worried was becuz i got it at a pretty good price

true but if they really increase 20%, u might have to wait for 3-6 mths for it to drop 20%, i.e. wait 3-6 mths to pay current price:dunno:

u 4got the micro adjustment, superb lcd, video.......:think: but agree that the 5d used at $1700-$1800 is great value for money

u may be rite as someone posted a 30% increase a few weeks ago but it also did not materialise

a staff from ms told me that after cny all will increase by 20% to cater for the exchange rate over the past 6 mths

TS, go for it! i wanted to buy but did not as i already have lens covering that range a bit regret as the 24-105 is a great walkaround lens esp if you travel overseas

if you are using a full frame 100mm 2.8 macro is the best, just got mine yesterday and am still amazed at the pics it delivered good for both macro and protrait
