Anyone know if there will be a rebate on the 5D next week?

No idea, but why would ther be a rebate? Canon usually runs a rebate before PMA or Photokina when they announce new products, to clear out the old. - I know the Fuji S3 will be $1100 next week- the S4 is coming.
As for 30D's in the US - 7 to 10 days so they (canon) said today.

There's been a persistent rumor on dpreview about it for some time now. The rumor suggests that it will start in the U.S. on April 1st. Supposedly there already is a rebate in some parts of Europe.

beware of anything that's supposed to show up on April 1st.... I've got a wedding to shoot that day, I think I'll fumble with my camera a bit and then ask the bride if she has any batteries.... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Edgar,

I imagine you are already aware of the Canon rebates. If not, the 5D has a $300 rebate, good from April 1 until July 15.

Hope all is well.

Thanks Melissa! I may get one (need to shoot a few more jobs first).

I may also want to go to Africa with your group later this year.
