Canon EOS 5D Mark II Digital camera - SLR - 21.1 Megapixel Body Only £1,729.69 inc P+P @ Computerwebstore


£1729.69

751°

FOUND BY: Wongo 10 months, 1 day ago

PLEASE READ BEFORE VOTING !

One of these deals was posted a few days ago and somehow was removed, anyway this is about the cheapest around. There is one company beating it till you add on the postage that for some reason is £91 !!! I nearly fell off my chair when I saw it. There is another with a really bad rep for a couple of quid cheaper, so I plumped for this company.

OK MINE ARRIVED TODAY from Computerwebstore so it IS reputable. They only have one in stock at time of typing BUT the stock seems to be coming in every few days now for this so even if they run out you shouldn't have to wait long.

Well what a fantastic camera it is. I own a 30D and a 1D MKIII but this is just so much better. Sure it hasn't got 10fps like the 1D but I do weddings so this is perfect.

I wont post all the blurb about what it is capable of as I assume people interested in this camera will already know.

I was really shocked at the sheer huge variation in price for this using froogle. £1715 is to a whopping £2480. As a side note, when this was out of stock at most places it was in stock at Ebuyer at about £50 more than i just paid. I ordered one and after a few days was told out of stock even though when I ordered it was available. They then cancelled my order and refunded my money, told me via email it was 'discontinued' , then two days later had it back up at £1839.99. Thanks Ebuyer I got it cheaper because of your greed.

Will be interesting to see what way this goes considering it's -6c outside right now !

The full frame EOS 5D Mark II combines outstanding resolution with 3.9 fps shooting and superlative high ISO performance. The addition of Full HD movie recording expands the boundaries of photography.
21.1MP full frame CMOS sensor
DIGIC 4 processor
ISO range expandable to 25600
Full HD (1080, 30fps) movie recording
High-res 3.0 VGA LCD with Live View
3.9fps JPEG shooting up to card capacity
9-point AF + 6 Assist AF points
Magnesium alloy body

Great price, but I will stick with my much loved 5D for now. And remember, it's no good buying a really expensive camera if you stint on the quality of the lenses.

Voted hot though

Ah lenses hmmm let me see 24-105 f4 L IS, 70-200 f2.8 L IS, 100-400 f4.5-5.6L IS, 100mm macro f2.8, thats my line up. Yes you have to use quality lenses but you wouldnt be buying this if you didnt have at least one. What credit crunch. Just need some more work to pay for it !

I love the "Only £1,729.69"!
Voted hot - best price around for that camera - but it's still a heck of a lot of money for a camera body only!

This is just the bare camera then? How much do the lens set you back?
I suppose if its something you make your living on its a good deal as I'm sure it would more than pay for itself with the shots it takes.
