EOS 5DS R Availability

[starimages1]

Went to purchase a few 5DSR camera bodies and they are no longer available.    Anyone know why???

I believe Canon has replaced the 5DSR with the Canon R5. The RF Mount is the future and Canon is discontinuing older EF Mount cameras and lenses.

Yikes.... I didn't know that although i suspected it.    I have about 25 cameras that it looks like are being phased out.   GRRRRRRR                   Thank you for your response

In January 2021, B&H had them on sale at $1499.00, which was when I bought one. This was the last of them.  No one else had them.  The Canon site every once in a while would have them as refurbished.  B&H would get a few every month, eventually all of the supply dried up.  This went on through 2021 and after that there were no more being sold.  It was replaced by the R5.

FWIW, here is a link to the Canon US refurbished camera site, and the 5DsR listing.  Out of stock right now, but you can select to get a notification when one comes available.  This one is $1199
