ZM ad ZI steep price increases?

[retow]

I received this information from Rob Skeoch:

"Zeiss Rangefinder and SLR Lens Prices going up

I'm sad to say the prices of Zeiss cameras and lenses will be going up on March 1st.
A few months back when the Canadian dollar was at $108 compared to the USA buck I dropped the prices on the Zeiss gear which I buy from Zeiss USA. Now our dollar has settled back down I'm going to have to put the prices back up..... plus to make matters worse Zeiss is raising the price on all their items anyway.


Although I haven't seen the new prices from Zeiss I would expect a price jump of at least 10% as of March 1st."

Thanks for the heads up. At least they're still a bargain compared to Leica prices. 🙂

sorry, but where are they going up - everywhere - Canada? I am confused?

Oh damn. And I was thinking of getting a ZI in May for my birthday, and money a bit tight at the moment. Sigh.

With the Dollar as low as it is, I'm surprised that it's take this long!
