I'm going on a trip, and my family doctor asked me to look for some pricing of cameras he'd like to buy, but feels it's too expensive in Canadian outlet stores.

He wrote on his prescription papers the following, but I just can't find the website/info on them.

Can anyone help? TIA

- Canon 800 1S USM f5.6
- Canon 600 f4.0L 1S USM

Any ideas? Thanks

Yea, I'm definitely not "fronting" the money. He's gonna have to wire it (which he even said he would, as I coughed to him squeezing my testicles)... I just didn't know it was "ten grand" equipment :eek:

That's USD by the way.

Here's a local store.

Also, have fun bringing these back. Big, heavy, and you will have to deal with customs.

I wouldn't go through the hassle and what happens if they're damaged in transit?
