Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8 DI VC USD for $999 AR, Authorized Dealer


Thanks to a new $200 Tamron USA Rebate we now have a fantastic street price on the vibration-controlled Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8 DI VC USD for Canon, it is now $999 AR brand new, directly from an authorized Tamron USA dealer with a 6-year Tamron USA warranty.

Free shipping, and no tax to most states. No doubt Tamron is feeling the same pressure that Canon is, which has pushed down lens prices as of late. This price drop is likely so Tamron can stay competitive with the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II.

Refurbished Primes and Tilt-Shifts In-Stock at the Canon Direct Store


The Canon Direct Store restocked their refurbished lenses yesterday. A few of the most popular items (e.g. the 70-200 II, and 85L II) sold out very quickly, be sure to set a notification at our refurbished stock tracker if you’d like to catch these items in-stock.

Hot: Tamron 150-600mm f/5-6.3 VC for $779 AR at BuyDig via eBay


Authorized Tamron dealer BuyDig via eBay has the Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD for Canon for $779.00, after a $70 Tamron mail-in rebate. This is brand new with a 6-year Tamron USA warranty and free shipping. Both Canon and Nikon mounts are available.

This is the lowest price we’ve seen yet for this super-telephoto zoom lens! This lens used to be extremely popular even at its introductory $1069 price point. After the Sigma 150-600 Contemporary was released, this lens fell out of favor, but for only $779 it is most definitely worth it.

Three of our most popular street prices no longer require a mail-in rebate, thanks to the new Canon USA instant rebate. All street prices are brand new from authorized Canon dealers with a 1-year Canon USA warranty and free shipping.

If you’d like to save a little more on the EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM II, the Canon Direct Store has a limited number (14 as of posting) on sale for $1519 refurbished.
