    what do you want Best or Cheapest?

    Cheapest will generally mean grey, with third party warranty (often purchased separately). Best will be backed with Aus manufacturer warranty and generally cost a bit more.

    Leederville is about the cheapest place to get an Australian sourced 5D3, and it comes with Canon Australia warranty.

    As this is a new model, with a couple of little bugs, personally, I would prefer to spend a couple hundred extra to get the piece of mind that comes with a genuine Australian warranty.

    As for going grey, Top Buy has the 5D3 for under $3400 delivered.
