what's the difference between CANON USA and GRAY Market
I'm in the USA an I am considering purchasing a Canon 1Ds. It's an
expensive camera. The cheaper version of the Canon 1ds is the IMPORT (gray market, they're called, I suppose). The gray market runs about $2000 less than the Canon USA. Can anyone tell me what the difference between the two are? thank you, mon@nom |

They are called gray market because the camera body is actually gray (to
denote that it is non USA) as opposed to the black USA body. The gray body does not keep the extra light out as well hence the lower price. GR wrote in message news:eAK0d.83073$yh.34687@fed1read05...

Then, I guess the USA cameras are black market? Makes sense to me.
