Hot, Lowest Yet: EOS 5Ds for $2699 (Import) from GetItDigital eBay

Posted August 25, 2015 at 4:49 pm EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 15 comments.

In a stunning price drop, Get It Digital via eBay now has the Canon EOS 5Ds for $2699.99. This is the lowest price we’ve seen yet for this recently available 50MP camera. Compare with a list price of $3699 and our street price of $3099.

Please note Get It Digital via eBay is not an authorized dealer, so a Canon USA warranty is not guaranteed (although, historically, Canon USA has honored it.) Also be aware that the store may call you to upsell, please decline all upgrades and insist they process your order at the $2699 price.. Other than this, Get It Digital via eBay has been a very reliable dealer.

Art 24-35mm f/2 DG HSM for Canon Street Price

$879.00

Deal Expired

We now have a newly reduced street price on the Sigma Art 24-35mm f/2 DG HSM for Canon. It’s now only $879.00, brand new from a Sigma USA dealer with a 4-year Sigma USA warranty. Our street price dealers have limited quantity — only available while stock lasts.

This lens was released only four weeks ago, and it’s incredible to see a 12% discount, or $120, from the regular price of $999. This lens is the first f/2 zoom for full-frame cameras. We also have great street pricing on Sigma’s traditional Art prime line-up:

Art 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM for Canon for $799 Street Price (vs. $949 MAP)
Art 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM for Canon for $779 Street Price (vs. $899 MAP)
Art 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM for Canon for $749 Street Price (vs. $849 MAP)

B&H DealZone: Tiffen 77mm Variable Density ND for $70 AR

Posted August 23, 2015 at 8:21 am EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 7 comments.

77mm Variable Neutral Density Filter

$44.95

Back-Order

Today’s B&H Photo Video DealZone (one-day deal) is the Tiffen 77mm Variable Neutral Density Filter for $69.95, after a manufacturer (Tiffen) $30 mail-in rebate.

We’re normally not a fan of Tiffen filters or variable density ND (we prefer reliable quality of the Lee Big Stopper) — but the reviews for this variable density ND filter read quite well (4.5 star on B&H). There are some caveats if you use the higher densities at wider angles, but overall it seems good value for money, if you don’t want to spend $350-400 on a Lee Stopper system.

Street Price on Sony Alpha a7II: $1399 from Authorized Dealer

Alpha a7 II Street Price

$1698.00

Deal Expired

We’re slowly expanding our street price program into non-Canon items. Our newest addition to the program is the Sony Alpha a7II, a very popular full-frame mirrorless camera with a 24mp Exmor CMOS sensor. It’s available at a street price of $1399, brand new from an authorized Sony dealer (with a 1-year Sony USA warranty.) Compare with the regular price of $1698.

Sony mirrorless cameras are very popular amongst Canon shooters, as the Metabones Adapter allows you to pair Canon’s best-in-class lenses with the Sony’s popular high dynamic range sensor. It’s a best of both worlds, especially for landscape or stills shooters who are willing to tolerate the loss of autofocus speed from using the adapter.
