Canon is about to rise again, because of global inflation.
price increase ranges from 1% to 2% to 10%. The official statement of
is still the same: "So far, we have made every effort to maintain product prices, but it has become difficult to maintain prices through corporate efforts. Therefore, in order to continue to provide high-quality products and services, we will make the following modifications to the price. "
price increase is the plan to take effect on November 4.
may affect 19 cameras, 42 lenses, two compact digital cameras, a Cinema EOS camera and a professional camera , involving 67 products.
This list basically covers Canon's current mainstream products, including all new RF cameras, such as EOS R5, R7 and R3, as well as older DSLR cameras, such as 1DX Mark III, 5D Mark IV and 6D Mark II. EOS R5C and XF605 movie camera will also be affected.
From media analysis, this price increase is quite large. For example, the EOS R5 is currently available in Japan for 460,000 yen (about 3,068 US dollars), which has increased to 520,000 yen (about 3,470 US dollars). Canon's latest high-end camera, the EOS R3, is priced at 680,000 yen (about $4,536), but will increase to 780,000 yen (about $5,200) on November 4.
Currently RMB is 7.24 against US dollars. This calculation makes the amplitude considerable.
However, Canon American company issued a statement saying: "The one who issued the price statement is Canon Marketing Japanese company, which is a subsidiary of Canon. They only decide to increase prices based on their own channels and business strategies."
This statement sounds like it means that everyone plays their own things, we will not mix them up.
In 2022, the price increase is still a Schrödinger's cat. However, as Double 11 approaches, the probability of price increase in China is relatively high. Waiting for Double 11 to give a discount, it means that the price has not changed, and consumers still feel that they have found a cheaper one.
