Hi,
In the Netherlands there is at the moment a price drop og €1000,- on this body .

IS Canion going to make an announcement at NAB about a new camera in between C100 and C300?

I want to buy one but probably I can better wait?

There is a new DIGIC DV 4 signal procesor, so we can see some new type of the Canon C-camera at NAB. But I don't think that this new types will be available before Christmas 2013 .-) . If you have a good business, then the camera will be paid in one year.

There maybe a in development announcement from Canon at the most. Canon released all it's NAB press releases so they're pretty much done with new cams at NAB. If there's a new C-cam coming they'll do the whole invitation campaign they've done for all 4 C-cinema cams. So far I haven't seen anything like that for NAB only from Sony for Sunday.

In terms of the $1,000 instant rebate on the C100 in other countries the AF100 and FS100 are both at $3,999 body only at B&H right now. The C100 is $2,500 more then both of them. Unless you really wanted the C100 the FS100 and AF100 are pretty cheap for some to go that route. I could see Canon do a $1,000 instant rebate for a month then price goes back up then comes down a little in a couple more months. They did just release the C100 Kit at $7099 no rebate as Texas Media posted here on the forum.

Wil, you'll have your answer within a week: NAB is finally here. Definitely wait that long until you purchase a camera.

A discount will be announced at NAB for the C100 Kit (with 24-105 lens) by Monday. Price with lens probably in the $6000-$6500 range. Body only price $5500 or ???

I don't think so (but I'd love to be wrong about this. All of Canon's NAB announcements are published here:

Unfortunately, you are incorrect Monday Isa. The link from Texas Media Systems is just there as preparation to take orders. The discount for the body and kit will be announced on Monday. It's already being sold at several international retailers with a $1,000 INSTANT rebate for the body/ kit.

I can't see any price drops in UK shops. Is it only certain countries that are getting a discount?

US and UK will hear about the discounts on the C100 Monday during NAB! I've seen the discount in Canada and a few other countries (already posted on those sites). Just a few more days! Maybe even lower prices than expected!!!!

Thanks for the info Troy. I will eagerly await the prices on Monday. It makes choosing the C100 + Ninja 2 over a C300 an easier decision if there is a big reduction on the C100.

Yes, C100 with Ninja 2 is by far a better deal than purchasing the C300 (for many buyers). Various topics discussed in detail on several forums (comparing the two). It's all about YOUR OWN individual needs for a particular product. But yes, looks like I'm going that route too after my own personal usage of both cameras.

Andy Solaini · April 6th, 2013, 09:54 AM

Ultimately I would like a C300 over a C100 but even at the current price point the differences in features just don't justify the extra cost for me. With the price reduction it's even more of a no-brainer.

Andy Solaini · April 8th, 2013, 10:30 AM

Damn the price is still the same today in the UK. I could really do with seeing something concrete about this very soon as I guess it's for a limited time and I will be out of the country in just over a week.
