EOS M with 22mm, 18-55mm, and 90EX Kit Mirrorless Camera

This is the mother-of-all EOS M deals: authorized dealer BuyDig via eBay has the Canon EOS M with 22mm, 18-55mm, and 90EX Kit for $399.00.

We’ve previously seen the 22mm kit for $299, and we’ve previously seen the 22mm kit plus 90EX flash for $399, but having the 22mm lens, the (more expensive) 18-55mm lens, and the 90EX flash for $399 is just incredible and insane.

Even in the one day lens firesale the two lenses were $125 and $150 (and quickly sold out). Even with those stunning prices, this deal is like getting an EOS M body for $125, and a free 90EX.

UPDATE: 236 sold in just under 4 hours.
UPDATE 2: 500 sold in 13 hours. Sold out!

EF 50mm f/1.4 USM for $299 at BuyDig via eBay

Posted October 5, 2013 at 10:31 am EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 0 comments.

EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Standard Lens

$299.99

Deal Expired

BuyDig via eBay has the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM for $299.99. They’re an authorized dealer. This deal ties for the lowest price that we’ve seen in the last five years — since May of 2008.

This is a great price, an additional $40 savings on top of a $60 instant rebate that Canon is running on this lens.

Last time BuyDig via eBay ran this deal (in April of 2013), they sold 200 copies of this lens in a few hours.

	Refurbished EF 500mm f/4L IS II USM Super Telephoto Lens	$9499.95 Deal Expired

If you have $10,000 burning a hole in your pocket there are some great opportunities on new and refurbished super telephotos. Profeel via eBay is now in-stock with the Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4x for $11299.00. This is one of the cheapest prices that we’ve seen since introduction on this lens.

If you’re looking spend just a little less than that (but not too much less), we saw the introduction of two refurbished lenses this week: Adorama has the Refurbished EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM for $9999.00 and the Refubished EF 500mm f/4L IS II USM for $9499.95. This is the first time we’ve seen these two lenses available refurbished.

Best Buy and the Canon Rebate Double-Dip

Posted October 3, 2013 at 11:36 pm EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 18 comments.

Best Buy returned their prices to “normal” today — they’re now featuring the same pre-rebate price as all other stores. We interpret this as confirmation that the low pricing we saw earlier this week was unintended — an accident on Best Buy’s part.

We’re also hearing from our readers that Best Buy has shipped all their orders at the low prices, and the rebate pre-submissions are being accepted on Canon’s rebate portal. Given the approved pre-submissions as well as all the clarifications from Canon’s hotline, we now have pretty good confidence that the double-dip will work out (as long as Canon does their part). Congrats to all who got in on the deal!

Unfortunately, with the price increase, the opportunity to get the 24-70 II for $1699 is over for now. We’re always on the lookout for the next big deal so please subscribe if you haven’t (use the notify button on the main page, or follow us on twitter) and we’ll e-mail you as soon deals happen.

EF 35mm f/1.4L USM for $1179 after rebate at Amazon, Adorama

	EF 35mm f/1.4L USM Wide Angle Lens	$880.78 Deal Expired

	EF 35mm f/1.4L USM Wide Angle Lens	$ Deal Expired

Amazon has the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L USM for $1179.00, after a $150 mail-in rebate. This is the cheapest price that we’ve seen in over 4 years, since January 2009. This is the same price as the Best Buy deal but Amazon charges sales tax to fewer states.

UPDATE: Adorama and Adorama via eBay have price-matched.

Amazon was recently added to the list of participating retailers for the Canon rebate so we don’t expect you’ll have a problem getting your rebate fulfilled.

EF 28-135mm IS Refurbished for $192 at Adorama via eBay

Refurbished EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Standard Zoom Lens

$192.00

Deal Expired

Great eBay Deal of the Day: Adorama via eBay has the image-stabilized Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM (Canon refurbished) for $192. This is a great deal — well below what this lens goes for used, and well below other refurbished ($383 at Canon Direct Store) or new prices ($479 from authorized dealers new).

At $192 this is a great value — a good choice as an upgrade from a kit lens. 100 have sold already in less than an hour!
