How do you think this will affect the 60 and 70d prices?

MORE AF POINTS.

Sorry, had to get that out.. So I think that the trend will stay the same, the 60d will drop another 10%, and the 70d will drop to around 800-900 for the bundle.

New bodies confuse me. I don't know at what point there's such a difference that I should upgrade from my Mark II. Mark III seemed great but I just couldn't justify it..I don't know when I ever will lol.

if you have a camera like a 5dmii you don't upgrade for a "better" camera, you upgrade because your camera stops functioning properly. its a fantastic body.

60d's will be cleared out if they aren't already, and the 70d will head down the clearance road. the 80d will take the place of the DSLR of choice for amateur videographers.

That's how I feel. I'd rather put the money towards new glass.
