Odd they would package it with SnowLeopard.

Odd they would package it with SnowLeopard.

It says "Customers buy this item with Snow Leopard" which suggests that some of those early adopters who have Snow Leopard on pre-order have also pre-ordered a G11.

So, Is that going to be something similar as EP-1 or Sigma DP1/DP2 ??

when they announed a bunch of other stuff? If there are more Nikon announcements, I hope it's a D700x.

You guys might wanna wait until next week...

Nikon will be introducing their P6000 successor with a DX-format sensor.

It has only been listed at $599 and marked down to $499.

You were looking at something else.

What does it matter, it is $499.

There is not risk, no charge to your card and you can cancel without penalty until it is shipped and even then you can return and get money back except shipping.

Amazon is not always the first but there is no hard in placing a pre-order with them.

Totally agree with Greg.

I get always do preorder from some major online seller. Incase the price is higher than market should be or ship delay. I just cancel the order or ask for return or discount I should get.

Thanks

My suggestion is to enjoy the camera you likely already have and be patient with Amazon and other online retailers. After all, would you rather pay $30-40 extra in sales tax rather than waiting a little while longer to get it from Amazon? Hasn't the downturn in the economy taught anyone to be more patient and to be more careful with money? Anyway, I just think it's ridiculous to be so impatient that you would be willing to pay such a large fee in sales tax just to get it a week or two earlier.

is that for real or just rumors?

The P5000, P5100, P6000 were all release on the month of August... Also right now the P6000 has just been discontinued.

I take it you are just guessing based on the past releases but sounds about right

The $549 thing wouldn't make a difference. They automatically drop the price if it goes down before your order is shipped. Had it happen many times (unless it's an outside supplier).

On the other hand, upping the MSRP is a bit our of order.

Canonrumors.com has a post which claims S90, G11 and 7D will be available at BestBuy on Oct 11.

Wow, if that is true then it could be Canon’s downfall. The Panasonic DMC-GF1 will be released this Friday 9/18/09 in Japan and next Thursday 9/24/09 in the states. Based on the samples I have seen from the S90 and the G11 you would have to be crazy to buy them over the GF1 even if it is twice as expensive.
