We’re hearing from our usual reliable sources that the mail-in rebates on lenses will not be renewed after Saturday, we will need to bid farewell to these excellent prices.
We’re also hearing that the instant rebates on bodies (5D Mark III, 6D, and 7D Mark II) will be renewed at the same values.
Many camera stores are now closed for the day, but it may still be possible to place a street price order and be eligible for the expiring mail-in rebate, please contact us. Here are the most popular lens street prices:
- $100 Rebate on EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM: Street price of $1039 AR
- $150 Rebate on EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM: Street price of $1649 AR
- $150 Rebate on EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM II: Street price of $1849 AR
- $200 Rebate on EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM: Street price of $989 AR

Glad it sounds like the body deals will remain similar… hopefully here in April I’ll finally be able to pull the trigger on at least one of the 2 bodies I’m eyeing…
Hopefully the expiring lens mail-in rebates turn into instant rebates this time around. I can’t imagine Canon not having some kind of lens rebate with the strength of the U.S. dollar compared to the yen. It’s up almost 16% year over year (although basically flat year-to-date).
