Hot Deal: EOS 5D Mark III for $2445 at BigValueInc via eBay

$1999.00

BigValueInc via eBay has the Canon EOS 5D Mark III for $2445.00. This is the absolute cheapest price we’ve seen ever, body-only, for the 5D Mark III.

BigValueInc via eBay is not an authorized dealer, but the vast majority of our readers report receiving US model items (which are valid for Canon US warranty service). At over $500 cheaper than authorized dealers, this is a great deal.

Also based on reader feedback, this is likely a split kit — an original 5D Mark III kit box, but with lens removed. BigValueInc sells the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens separately for $635.00.

	Photoshop Lightroom 5 for Mac and Windows Software	$99.99 Deal Expired

	Photoshop Lightroom 5 for Mac and Windows (Download) Software	$99.99 Deal Expired

Even better: Amazon now has Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 for Mac and Windows for $99.99. This ties for the lowest price that we’ve ever seen for this software.

If you bought earlier today at $109, don’t worry — you’ll probably be able to get a price adjustment.

Oh, and Black Friday begins in less than 20 minutes (on the East Coast). Are you ready? We are!

UPDATE: Amazon is back up to $109. However, B&H still has the Download Edition for $99.99.

New EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM for $741.65 AR at Canon Store

EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM Macro Lens

$741.65

Deal Expired

This is probably a price mistake, but the Canon Direct Store has the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM for $741.65, after a $150 mail-in rebate. This is the cheapest price that we’ve seen for this lens.

We say it is a price mistake because, even though this is a new lens, it is receiving the 15% discount that refurbished lenses are currently getting.

The Canon store charges tax to almost all states. We feel there will be more opportunities soon for double-dip deals on this lens. To get e-mailed when these deals start, click here to set a notification.

Speedlite 600EX-RT Flash

$399.99

Sold Out

We don’t have experience with this seller, but it’s a great price: DigJungle via eBay has the Canon Speedlite 600EX-RT for $399.99. This is $75 cheaper than the current prices, and also the lowest unauthorized dealer price that we’ve ever seen.

We normally are quite wary of eBay sellers we’ve never heard of but DigJungle has over 8,000 positive feedbacks (99.6%) including a history of selling Canon items. This is probably an import version at this price, but it’s a fantastic deal still! Free shipping (ships from Connecticut).

Adobe Lightroom 5 for $109 (Boxed or Download) at B&H

	Photoshop Lightroom 5 for Mac and Windows Software	$109.00 Deal Expired

	Photoshop Lightroom 5 for Mac and Windows (Download) Software	$109.00 Deal Expired

B&H Photo Video has the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 for Mac and Windows for $109.00 (boxed edition) or $109.00 (download edition). Other than a sale a few months ago for $99 (which quickly ended when Adobe got wind), this is the lowest price we’ve seen for this software.

Lightroom 6 is a long time away so this is the prime time to be buying LR5.

Hot eBay Doorcrasher: EOS 6D for $1400 at BigValueInc via eBay

	EOS 6D Digital SLR Camera	$1149.00 Deal Expired

	EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM Standard Zoom Lens	$635.00 Deal Expired

Hot deal: BigValueInc via eBay has the full-frame Canon EOS 6D for $1400.00, just as we predicted. This is the cheapest price ever we’ve seen for the EOS 6D body-only.

BigValueInc via eBay is not an authorized dealer, but the vast majority of our readers report receiving US model items (which are valid for Canon US warranty service). At over $250 cheaper than authorized dealers, this is a great deal.

This is likely a split kit — expect a 24-105L deal later this week, perhaps around $650?

UPDATE: BigValueInc now has the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM for $635.00. This is the new all-time lowest price for this lens (from an unauthorized dealer).

UPDATE 2: There’s been some discussion on whether or not this is US model or import. We called BigValueInc and they did say this 6D deal includes import bodies (they didn’t say how many). For import bodies, they suggest trying to get warranty service first with Canon (Canon USA has a history of servicing anything provided you show a dated receipt); failing that, BVI would provide a store warranty of 90-days.

eBay Doorcrasher: EOS SL1 + 18-55mm for $399 at BlutekUSA via eBay

EOS Rebel SL1 with 18-55mm Kit (Black) Digital SLR Camera

$399.99

Sold Out

BlutekUSA via eBay has the Canon EOS Rebel SL1 with 18-55mm Kit for $399.99. This is an incredible price — $200 cheaper than authorized dealers, and $50 cheaper than refurbished. They only have 1,000 at this price, and after 30 minutes, they’ve already sold 100 (10%).

BlutekUSA is not an authorized dealer, but this is likely US model stock and eligible for the US warranty. (Non-US models would be named something other than “Rebel SL1”, with either “1000D” or “Kiss” naming.)
