The price is ¥848,000 with tax (around $9370). Amazon Japan does not ship electronics to other countries (for now the 645D will be sold only in Japan). Some other sites, like JapanTrendShop.com will probably offer shipping outside Japan for a premium.

    If you want it and can afford to buy it, you can probably afford to fly to Japan to get it.

      In an interview with Luminous Landscapes Pentax said they will in the long run. Right now they don’t have the level of professional support to backup a camera like the 645D so they decided to release it first in Japan.
