mhwarner Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Looks like you have a few months to save for it, Paul. Kinda pricey. I had to settle for a new 60D instead.The Canon EOS-1D X Digital SLR camera is scheduled for March 2012 availability and will be sold in a body-only configuration at an estimated retail price of $6,800.00.
