Leica also rumored to increase prices in the US

By PR admin | Published: April 15, 2025

It seems that after Canon, Fujifilm, and Blackmagic, Leica will be the next company to introduce price increases in the US as a result of the new tariffs introduced by President Trump. The new prices are rumored to come as early as this week.

Coming next: Fujifilm price increase in the US

By PR admin | Published: April 12, 2025

A reliable source confirmed to me today that Fujifilm has suspended orders for the GFX100RF, X100VI, and X-M5 cameras in the US. It looks like the company will very soon implement significant price increases (in the US only) due to the new tariffs introduced by President Trump, just like Canon and Blackmagic. It is unclear if the new price increase will impact all Fujifilm products or only the suspended models.

As I already mentioned, there will be more price increases to come. If you are planning on purchasing new gear, now would be a good time to do so since I expect more prices to be adjusted in the coming weeks. B&H and Adorama are currently closed for the next 10 days, but you can check our sponsors Amazon, Paul's Photo, and Service Photo for your photo equipment needs.

Breaking: Canon to increase prices in the US as a result of the new Trump tariffs

By PR admin | Published: April 12, 2025

A reliable source just confirmed to me that Canon will soon increase prices in the US as a result of the new tariffs introduced by President Trump last week.

If you are planning to get some new gear, now would be a good time since the price increase could come as early as next week. B&H and Adorama are currently closed for the next 10 days, but you can check our sponsors Amazon, Paul's Photo, and Service Photo.

Blackmagic already increased its prices in the US a few days ago.

Update: Canon Canada is also expected to increase prices.

There will be more price increases to come.
