Popular Street Prices: 70-200 II $1899, 24-70 II $1749, 16-35 f/4 $1049


The Canon 20%-off refurbished sale ended with no restock of highly-desired lenses — those lenses already sell out quickly at full refurbished price, so we’re not surprised that Canon did not restock them during the sale.

If you are disappointed, luckily, we still have some great street prices available, brand new from authorized Canon dealers with a full 1-year Canon USA warranty, no tax to most states:

The street price on the EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM is especially popular as this is the first time the lens has gone on rebate. Again, we’re not expecting to see the Canon Minimum Advertised Price policy broken this year, so we don’t expect to see lower prices publicly shown on retailer’s websites.

We also continue to have two fantastic and popular body deals, and some grip specials, please inquire if interested.



Canon Refurbished Lens Sale! $50 off $500, $25 off $250


The Canon Refurb Store started a small sale tonight. They are offering $50 off a purchase of $500 or more. (Now we know why they re-stocked earlier today!) This sale runs until October 14th.

See the discounted price in-cart, at checkout.

These prices were already quite good due to the recent price drops. Recall, all refurbished items come with a full 1-year Canon warranty.

Check out our refurb stock tracker for the full list of lenses in-stock.

If you already purchased earlier today, note the Canon Direct Store does not price adjust, we’d recommend re-buying and cancelling the original order if you want to ensure you get in on the deal.



Canon Refurbished Store was Restocked


The Canon Refurb Store was just restocked. There is currently no refurbished sale, but these prices are quite good due to the recent price drops, and refurbished lenses have been selling out — even at “full” refurbished prices, as refurbished items come with a 1-year Canon warranty.

Check out our refurb stock tracker for the full list of lenses in-stock.



Canon Mail-in Rebate: 24-70 II for $1799 AR, 70-200 II for $1949 AR


It’s been two days since Canon started a mail-in rebate on 27 lenses. Thus far, the most popular street price lens deals in the new rebate have been the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM II for $1949 AR and the 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM for $1799 AR.

The rebate also renewed the $200 mail-in rebate on the EOS 5D Mark III ($2699 AR) and the EOS 6D ($1439 AR).

Finally, one oddity: the rebate form shows an increased rebate this month, from $300 to $350, on the PIXMA PRO-100 Printer + Paper. This makes the printer $48 AR at B&H or Adorama — but perhaps we’ll see a price drop before the month is up?
