Amazon has two great deals on Tamron G2 (newer version) lenses. They are stacking a $100 instant savings on top of the Tamron $100 mail-in rebate, for a total of $200 savings from regular price. Amazon is an authorized Tamron dealer.
With 2017 drawing to a close, let’s countdown the most popular Canon items of 2017! We compiled statistics via our street price program as well as through our posted deals (new and refurbished), and we sorted by number of copies purchased.
You can compare with last year’s list. Surprised by any of the items in our listing? Chime in below in the comments!
All the best to our CPW readers in the new year!
Sneaking in at #10 on our list is the EOS-1D X Mark II — a recent price drop (street price of $5099) has re-spurred purchases in this high-end performer.
In its first full year, the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM has been quite popular with the street price coming down to $1799. It has stiff competition, though, in the form of the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II (still great performance) and the 16-35mm f/4L IS (great value).
For certain, 2017 is the last year that we’ll see the 5D Mark III on a top-ten list (we were wrong in our prediction last year that it would not be on the 2017 list). This body is now out of stock at most dealers. B&H is one of the few with remaining stock, they have a great $2099 clearout price with many free items for only one more week.
The EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM was greatly helped by the $150-per-lens mail-in rebate, in 2017 we saw an uptick in purchases for this lens. No surprise, because the price point in the $500s made it a fantastic deal, and a unique lens to add to your camera bag.
The EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM is still a perennial best seller, delivering great value, especially with the $150-per-lens mail-in rebate.
The third full year for the 100-400mm II since its release in late 2014, and its third year in the top-3 popular Canon lenses at CPW. We expect this lens to continue to be popular through 2018 and beyond. It’s a solid performer.
We’re amazed the 70-200 II still sits in the #2 position amongst lenses, it’s been a full seven years since its announcement. One of the best Canon zoom lenses ever made. Most photographers end up owning one of these. Our street price is currently $1659.
The popularity of the EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM tracks very closely with the popularity of full-frame cameras, as this lens is often the first stop after a full-frame purchase. With the great full-frame deals, this lens sneaks ahead of the 70-200 II into the top lens position. A fantastic performer and now tremendous value at $1499.
This body started off very slow with its $1999 introductory price point. The popularity spiked with the massive Black Friday discounts — $1349 AR including free grip and printer, or our still live $1499 price including free grip. Canon’s found a sweet spot in price for this camera and it’s been the best seller in the last two months.
The 5D Mark IV was the number #1 Canon item this year (according to CPW data), more than doubling the next item on the list, in its first full year of sales. This camera was doing extremely well in the first half of the year (even at its then $2999 price point), no surprise that at the current prices of $2849 with lots of freebies or the refurbished sales, many readers took the plunge.
Adorama has the Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8 DI VC USD for Canon for $899.00. This ties for the lowest price that we’ve seen yet for this optically image-stabilized lens (from an authorized dealer), which was last seen in February 2014. This also comes with a 4% Adorama reward. Please note this is for the older (not G2) version of the lens.
Compare with a regular price of $1099.
Our street price dealers — they are Canon USA authorized dealers — have a very limited quantity of the brand new Canon EF 85mm f/1.4L IS USM available. Please inquire for details, including the price. This includes free shipping within the continental USA.
This lens was long-awaited, very popular, and is still very low in supply. Please inquire via the street price form to place an order (while quantities last). The lens also comes with a free 13-month CarePAK PLUS extended warranty covering accidental damage — this promotion ends next week (January 6th).
This deal from Adorama is live again and improved: the Sigma Contemporary 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM for Canon is now $789.00. You also get a 4% reward and a free 95mm UV filter. Free shipping is included.
With the extra freebies (about $100 of value), this is a great deal versus the regular price of $989. Sigma lenses purchased from authorized dealers come with a 4-year Sigma USA warranty. Nikon mount is also available.
