Another hot deal: BuyDig via eBay has the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM for $279.00.
This is the absolute cheapest we’ve seen for this lens since we started tracking its price in 2007. With a fast-focusing USM motor this lens is a nice upgrade from the 50mm f/1.8. At this price it is tremendous value.
UPDATE: Amazon matched the $279 price.
BuyDig via eBay has the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM for $725.00, after a $150 mail-in rebate. This is the new lowest price that we’ve ever seen for this lens. BuyDig is an authorized dealer, and thus is eligible for the mail-in rebate.
Other authorized dealers have this for $899. The previous low price was an incredible double dip deal at $749. This is even lower than that!
We saw this deal accidentally start earlier today, but it was quickly stopped. This time, we think this deal is here to stay, until sold out — only 300 are available.
UPDATE: Amazon matched the $725 AR price.
If you missed the 90-minute 5D Mark III for $2445 craziness, here’s one other 5D Mark III deal of note: Adorama has a bundle of the EOS 5D Mark III with EF 24-105 IS Kit, PIXMA PRO-100, and extras for $3299.00, after a $400 mail-in rebate.
Click here to check out the deal at Adorama, you need to proceed to checkout to see the pre-rebate discounted price of $3699. You also get 2% rewards ($74), so your net ends up around $3225. We’d only recommend this deal if you’re actually interested in keeping the lens and/or printer, as the resale market is quite saturated for these items. The lens probably goes for $600-650 these days, which puts you at $2600 for the body which is a respectable deal from an authorized dealer.
BuyDig via eBay very briefly had the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM for $725.00, after a $150 mail-in rebate. This is the new lowest price that we’ve ever seen for this lens. BuyDig is an authorized dealer, and thus eligible for the mail-in rebate.
The auction was quickly ended, but you can still see the completed listing here. Three people managed to purchase this before it ended.
I expect that we’ll see this again real soon. This deal started at 12 PM ET, where as most Thanksgiving eBay deals start at 12 AM ET. Perhaps someone got PM and AM mixed up?
Adorama via eBay has the EOS 60D refurbished for $479.00.
This is $18 more than the Canon Direct Store price of $460.79 (currently a 20% off sale) but Adorama doesn’t charge tax to most states so you will likely end up ahead. The Canon Store has also been out of stock for a few days now.
Compare with $599 new from authorized dealers. Or, if you still prefer new, BigValueInc via eBay has it for $569.
The deal from BigValueInc via eBay on the Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $2445.00 is almost sold out. Note, they’re not an authorized dealer.

Our calculations show that there only 88 bodies left, and they will likely be sold out within the next thirty minutes.
1:31 AM ET: Sold out. 300 bodies in 91 minutes.
