Do Digital SLR Camera prices usually drop after the January?”
The fact is that digital cameras, like computers, are among those rare products where the price trend is headed down, or the features and quality are headed up, or both at the same time. Anything you bought a year ago can be purchased today for significantly less. Any features that were the latest and greatest last Christmas are old-hat today. So the answer to your question: buy what you want when you see a good price, and then expect to see the cost go down over time. Although it sometimes hurts to find that the camera you bought a month ago is on sale today for less, remember that the photos you took while you’ve owned the camera have value . . . and you can’t go back in time to snap a picture you didn’t take.
