Canon EOS 6D Mark II retail price in Japan leaks, it’s around $2100 converted, available in August 2017

Nokishita posted the Canon EOS 6D Mark II price tags for Japan.

• EOS 6D Mark II body: 243,000 Yen (approx. $2,160)
• Kit with EF 24 – 105mm F 3.5-5.6 IS STM: 290,520 Yen (approx. $2,590)
• Kit with EF 24 – 70mm F4 L IS USM: 353,160 Yen ($3,150)

My take: the rumor suggesting a price of $1,999 for the Canon EOS 6D Mark II in the USA is still to consider. Even if the conversion from Yen is around $2,100, it doesn’t mean the price in the USA will the more or less exact conversion from the Yen. A price of $1,999 for the body is still likely.
