A reminder that this is the last week for Canon’s mail-in rebate: of up to $200 off twenty different L-lenses. Purchases must be dated March 29th or before to be eligible for the rebate.

We have also heard that a “price adjustment” (and not the good kind) will happen a few days after the rebate period ends. At this time we recommend purchases during the current rebate or refurb sale as it may be the lowest prices that we’ll see for a while. We’ll provide more details as we hear…

We list the lenses, the rebate amount, and after-rebate prices below. Some of the lenses (in bold) are great deals as the price is close to the very low prices that we saw last year! There have been a few double-dips (even a triple-dip) but no major movements on prices during this month.
