Canon Lens PRICE HIKE in full swing.

Oct 1, 2009

True to their word, Canon lens prices are officially ludicrous (Oct 1st).

Hell, they didn't even wait til midnight pacific time. I checked online here in L.A. at 9pm and the prices on lenses are already sitting pretty atop Mt. Everest.

Nikon owners constantly moan about having to pay more for equivalent lenses compared to Canon's. Not anymore. Reality check: Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS L = $1800 USD.

I think I'll hold on to my money.
