Canon 1D C Body for $5000

New condition authorized-dealer supplies for the Canon 1D C body only Cinema DSLR are running on the dry side, but if you want it, it is still available in-stock and in new condition for $5000 at B&H Photo. Note that this is sold as non-returnable item. If you have any issues with it, you have to go through the Canon warranty. This is not an uncommon practice for professional video equipment where returns can be used as “temporary rentals” by film makers on a shoestring budget.

PS: I have began a full frame cameras price check for the upcoming “Price Charts” series, this is the first of potentially more full frame discount posts to come (assuming there are more mentionables that is).
