Today Canon USA changed pricing (MAP - minimum advertised price) on some popular lenses and flashes. While most of these prices will have very little impact on the current selling price (some lenses and flashes even decreased in their selling price), it will effect the local photo specialty dealers ability to keep matching prices and competing with a majority of on-line discounters.
Here is a breakdown of the new pricing...
