Last night’s price drops were a new instant savings on 16 lenses and 3 speedlites. Unfortunately there are no L-lenses on that list, but it’s good to see Canon prices starting to trend down as they have been on an upwards march for the last half year.

The best deals are on five lenses that were already featured in price drops at the beginning of September. Recall that the new IS primes were introduced at $849, and the 17-55 IS was recently $1059 and the 10-22 was recently $759:

• EF 24mm f/2.8 IS USM for $549 (down from $599)
• EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM for $499 (down from $549)
• EF 35mm f/2 IS USM for $549 (down from $599)
• EF-S 10-22mm USM for $599 (down from $649)
• EF-S 17-55mm IS USM for $829 (down from $879)

You can check out the entire list of what’s included in this instant savings.

Some dealers are jumping the gun again and we’re noticing many price fluctuations that indicate that a new Canon rebate (or a pricing change) will be happening tonight.

At this time we’re seeing the following early changes:

• EF 50mm f/1.4 USM for $339 (down from $399)
• EF 85mm f/1.8 USM for $359 (down from $419)
• EF 35mm f/2 IS USM for $549 (down from $599)
• EF-S 10-22mm USM for $599 (down from $649)
• EF-S 17-55mm IS USM for $829 (down from $879)
• Extender 1.4x III for $449 (down from $499)
• Extender 2.0x III for $449 (down from $499)
• Speedlite 430EX II for $259 (down from $299)
• Speedlite 600EX-RT for $499 (down from $549)

UPDATE: The sale started and is called an “Instant Savings” at most dealers. No L-lenses moved in price, but most non-L lenses were discounted (generally around $50).
