1DC Discount

[alexcornell]

I recall not too long ago a mention of the 1DC being discounted $2K, similar to the C300's drop. Doesn't look to be the case now -- curious if anyone has heard anything about an impending rebate or discount. Obviously I imagine this would be purely speculative, but just want to make sure I haven't missed a reputable rumor somewhere. 

 

I know the only camera anyone caress about anymore is the A7s, but would be interested to hear thoughts on timing a 1DC purchase, if let's just say hypothetically, that was being considered.

While we have the A7S and 5D3, Canon's superior color science for skintones makes the 1DC a desirable tool for stills and 4K video for those shooting professionally.

Agree 100%. I was able to use the 1D C and the skin tones look fantastic right out of the gate. However even at $10 grand (with the discount) I believe the cam is overpriced. Save the money and spend some extra time in post.

Its poor  compression codec make huge unnecessary filesize, moreover it is lack of  many  necessary features for pro works ,and it has strong rolling shutter  effects,therefore I think The 1DC is not just overpriced,it is too outdated,even its color science doesn't worth that price level

Oh, is that the case?
