Sneak Peek: Amazon Prime Day Deals for Canon Photographers

Posted July 15, 2015 at 1:48 am EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 14 comments.

More info is now available on the Amazon Prime Day, including a partial list of the Canon-related photography items that will be featured. See below for a list of some of the items we’re expecting to see go on sale, and the time we expect them to be featured (in Eastern timezone.)

As expected we do not see any Canon items on the list — they are likely still restricted by the Canon Minimum Advertised Price policy. There may be good deals on accessories, bags, and third-party lenses (such as Rokinon.) We hope there are a lot more than this list, as so far it’s looking quite sparse.

As the deals are restricted to Amazon Prime members only, so now would be a good time to sign-up for a free 30-day trial of Prime if you haven’t yet already.

Sony Class 10 SDHC Flash Cards Starts 10:40 AM
GoPro Hero4 Black 4K Action Camera Bundle Starts 11:10 AM
Lowepro SlingShot 202 AW Camera Bag Starts 11:50 AM
Rokinon HD8M-C 8mm f/3.5 HD Fisheye Lens for Canon Starts 12:50 PM
Rokinon 50mm T1.5 Cine Lens for Canon Starts 2:50 PM

	Contemporary 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM for Canon Street Price	$899.00 Deal Expired

	Sports 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM for Canon EF Street Price	$1699.00 Deal Expired

We’re now taking street price pre-orders on the Sigma Contemporary 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM for $899. Our previous two street price offerings sold out within an hour, and many readers have expressed interest in this lens at this fantastic price — a $190 savings vs. regular price on this new and still hard-to-find lens.

If you pre-order at $899 we’ll have a guaranteed lens for you, from an authorized Sigma USA dealer with a 4-year Sigma warranty, when the lenses are available within the next few weeks.

We’re also taking pre-orders on the Sigma Sport 150-600mm at $1899 (note, lower availability), and have great in-stock street prices on the Sigma 24mm, 35mm, 50mm, and 18-35mm.

UPDATE: SOLD OUT. Contact us to waitlist.

We have a limited quantity of the EOS 5Ds R in-stock via our street price program, at a great street price from an authorized dealer with a 1-year Canon USA Warranty and free shipping. If you are interested, please fill out the EOS 5Ds R street price form for more details. Only available while quantities last.

This body has been hard to find since its introduction in mid-June, and it is still out-of-stock at many retailers. The regular price for this body is $3899, and our street price is lower!

Street Price: EOS Rebel T6s for $759, with 18-135mm IS for $999

Posted July 10, 2015 at 2:05 pm EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 1 comment.

We now have a street price on the EOS Rebel T6s, in both body-only ($759) and 18-135mm IS kit ($999), from an authorized Canon dealer with 1-year Canon USA warranty and free shipping.

The T6s is the first Canon Rebel series camera to feature an LCD top-panel, which is very convenient for checking and setting adjustments (without having to use the back LCD or viewfinder.) Compare with $849 body-only or $1149 with kit lens at other authorized dealers.

Street Price: EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II for $2049

EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II Street Price

$2099.00

Deal Expired

Our previous street price deal sold out very quickly. Other authorized dealers are now offering a street price on the EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II that is only slightly more: $2049 brand new from a Canon USA authorized dealer. Quantities are still very limited as this lens is extremely popular.

We still have great street prices on Sigma Art and Sports lenses as well.
