Sony XDCAM EX1 Price Drop
Published by Matthew Jeppsen February 14th, 2008 in Cameras, FreshDV, Hardware, ShoppingI just noticed that B&H dropped their price on the PMW-EX1 camcorder. It was previously listed at $6699.00 and has been recently reduced to $6,449.00 (and is currently marked “In Stock”). This is a great development for a camcorder that is still in high demand. New EX1 buyers should also remember to take advantage of the 8GB SxS card rebate (PDF) and also the EX1 + Accessories rebate. We’ve been been doing a series of EX1 reviews and tests, click on over for more info on our results.

According to the dealers I talked to, the price on the EX1 was set by Sony. Many dealers were offering it at the minimum sell of $6449 from the first day it was available. I got mine from DVW for that price back in November. Also, as is usually the case, the price of accessories from B&H is so much higher than anyone else! You really have to learn to buy if you want to save money. There are discounts for getting demos on products that only local dealers can provide, there are location discounts for others. Never accept the price posted on a website. And watch out for gray market!
