It will additionally be offered in a kit version with Canon's EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM zoom lens at an estimated selling price of $1,599.00*.
As of December 1st, 2008 it is generally available. Usually, you can get the best deals on cameras and shipping from Amazon.
October 2009 update:
The big news is that the
Canon EOS 7D is available,
which is good news if you've been thinking about
buying a Canon EOS 50D!
While everybody else is scrambling to find an available
EOS 7D to pay full price for,
there's no problem finding the EOS 50D
any more! I just checked, and you can
buy the Canon EOS 50D body at Amazon
EOS 50D Where to Find the Best Price
Amazon
Time after time I've checked the major retail sites, including the top camera gear sites, only to find that if Amazon carries it, their deal is best overall when you consider price, ease of ordering, cost of shipping, and speed of delivery. Amazon is always open for business, while many of the big New York camera Stores shut down for their religious holidays or have odd weekend hours. I respect them for honoring their beliefs, but they've lost my business several times when I needed something right away and they weren't open, not even on their website.
Other sites may discount a few bucks, but this is lost (and more besides) after you add delivery charges. Amazon is usually cheaper on shipping charges. Oftentimes they offer free "super saver" shipping for orders over a certain dollar amount, and camera gear almost always qualifies. And during the holidays, they usually have some type of free or discounted shipping deals, and they'll also let you know if they can get it to you by Christmas.
If you sign up for an Amazon.com Prime account, which has a low annual fee, you'll get free Second Day Air shipping on products carried by Amazon. If you buy just a few items a year from Amazon, the free expedited shipping will easily pay for the cost of the annual Amazon Prime fee. I highly recommend it.
With Amazon, you know from their website whether they have a product in stock. Some other sites may offer a lower price, but they don't tell you whether they have it in stock or when they will ship it.
B&H
This is my next favorite place to buy high-end camera gear.
