Super hot deal: Adorama has the Canon EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM for $799.00, after a $200 mail-in rebate. This is a triple-dip! Adorama is applying a $400 instant discount in cart. This is the new lowest price that we’ve seen for this lens — over $100 cheaper than the previous low of $899.
When you add to cart you will see the discounted price of $999. After rebate, your final price is $799.00.
Here’s a screenshot of the in-cart price:
Is this lens worth it for $800? Compared to the 24-105 that I can get for $600 in Craigslist.
It’s a personal choice but various reviews suggest the 24-70mm f/4L is sharper than the 24-105mm f/4L, smaller, more compact and a bit better balanced weight-wise.
Of course you are giving up a bit of reach, and also it’s a bit more expensive.
its 10x better… wayyyyy sharper, better IS, and has a crazy close macro setting, which for some could make it more sought after than its 2.8 brother

Never mind …. deal is still good… Sorry about that…
No go for me because they charge me shipping. lol
Bought! Thanks a bunch for your awesome price alert 🙂
This is an excellent deal… Having the latest gear for this price is an unbelievable last year or in any prior years. Losing a bit of a reach is not much of a big deal. I would choose this over the 24-105mm any day. Used to own the 24-105mm and now there is just no love because of this new lens. Of course, buying from Adorama… gee.. they have gotten so much of my hard earned money, but it’s worth it.
Wow, just bought the Tamron 24-70 2.8 Di VC for $1300. I would say this is a steal of a price. I’m going to buy it anyway. I don’t know why yet but I’m still going to buy it.
do you want to sell me your Tamron?
Got it last year where the lowest price was 879 after mail in rebate @ Adorama. I do not regret it. However, would have never paid 1.5k$ for it. But for this price you can’t go wrong. This lens might not be perfect for real macro work. But this feature comes in handy while traveling as you do not need to carry another lens.
Just purchase it. Will be using it for hiking and travel pair with the 70-200f/4IS.
No working anymore.
