Art Varga · April 9th, 2013, 06:11 AM

does anyone know if this is a permanent price drop? B&H has it listed as a rebate offer good only through 4/11.

Anyone seen the C100 discounted in the UK?

I've been keeping an eye on it and not seen anything at all. Is the UK definitely going to see a discount?

Ben Giles · April 9th, 2013, 10:30 AM

UK - proav.co.uk just quoted me £3295 + VAT (down from £3675)

Ben.

Andy Wilkinson · April 9th, 2013, 10:46 AM

That's a terrific price for the C100 and the capabilities it brings!

Ben.

I guess you had to specifically ask for a price? It still says £3675 + VAT on the site.

Ben Giles · April 9th, 2013, 01:02 PM

Apparently, they're changing it tonight.

Ben.

Dan Burnap · April 9th, 2013, 03:49 PM

I've just emailed CVP.co.uk if they have a discount. When they reply I will post here.

Chris Malley · April 9th, 2013, 04:57 PM

Good plan Dan!

With the C100 coming down in price (hard to find a confirmation of future price in UK) and the Atomos Ninja 2 coming down in price too, I can't wait to scrape some pennies together. I tend to buy most things from CVP, so I can't wait for the reply.

If you can let us know that would be very useful thanks Dan.

I would be after a C100 and a Ninja 2 so if both are getting a price reduction that's great. Anyone know when the Ninja reduction will happen?

Troy Moss · April 9th, 2013, 06:19 PM

Atomos Ninja 2 Price Reduction already occurred (announced yesterday at NAB). Just found out the New Price is $795! The $695 Ninja 2 will only have one battery with a single battery charger (along with all other accessories). It will be available end of May. Just received this update on Wednesday morning......

Andy Wilkinson · April 10th, 2013, 01:19 AM

CVP have a UK price match policy which I can vouch from experience they honour. Details of how it works are on their website. They also have a superb approach to customer service if anything should go wrong, which I can also confirm from personal experience...

As always, if you're UK based, buy your gear from a reputable dealer, whether it be CVP, H Preston, ProAV, Jigsaw24 etc. Our friends across the pond have a number of excellent dealers and DVinfo Forum sponsors to choose from too.

The Ninja 2 price reduction is interesting. Wonder if there is going to be a "Ninja 3" with a better capacative screen appearing sometime later this year - but too early for a NAB announcement? (i.e. a screen like the new Samurai Blade has). Really wish the Blade had both a SDI and HDMI input option, without needing the extra bulk of the slot-on converter they sell. Mind you, at that price the Ninja 2 is golden partner to any C100 where you need or want 4:2:2 and I guess they wanted to keep the Blade as small as possible.

Dan Burnap · April 10th, 2013, 10:35 AM

Had a reply from CVP:

"Hi Dan

Thank you for your email we have stock of the C100 please see link attached Canon EOS C100 EF (Cinema, EOS, C-100) Super 35mm digital cinematography camcorder with EF lens mount
At this price would you like me to quote this product for you.

Look forward to your thoughts."

The link is for their current page with the existing price of £3,675.00 + VAT £4,410.00 inc VAT

The wording is a bit strange but it would seem they are open to offers..?

Chris Malley · April 10th, 2013, 10:45 AM

Thats definitely a strange one...I'd ask for a quote/price match on the C100 & Ninja 2 bundle form jigsaw24.

EOS Camera Range | Canon C100 and Atomos Ninja 2 Bundle includes mount, drive and cable | J24

However they are still showing the "old" pricing. It is worth keeping in mind the price dropped Ninja comes without many of the accessories like 1 battery instead of 2, no docking station, no carrycase etc.
