Here’s a quick summary of what and when to expect from Canon as we head into the Black Friday season. In this post, we’ll cover deals on Canon cameras and lenses, as well as the expected timing of refurbished, grey market, and Amazon deals.<\/p>\n
New Cameras — 5D Mark IV and 6D Mark II — Already Here!<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
The deals on the 5D Mark IV<\/a> and 6D Mark II<\/a> are already here, and we don’t expect improvements for Black Friday. The 5D Mark IV + freebies (including the BG-E20 grip) is $2849 after mail-in rebate<\/a> at B&H<\/a> or Adorama<\/a>. The 6D Mark II (with same freebies) is $1349 after mail-in rebate<\/a> at B&H<\/a> or Cameras — Everything Else — Starting Midnight ET Tonight<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n We’re hearing noise on the 5D Mark III<\/a> and 6D<\/a>, and wouldn’t be surprised if they get discounted further. The Canon rebate period switches over at midnight ET tonight<\/i>, so please check back then if you’re looking for a deal, quantities are limited on these discontinued bodies. Our street prices on the EOS 80D<\/a> and EOS-1D X Mark II<\/a> are newly lowered to the lowest price of the season.<\/p>\n Lenses — Black Friday Street Price Sale Already Running<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n Our Black Friday street prices sale on lenses<\/a> has been running for a week and have been popular. We have some terrific prices and we don’t expect them to decrease further. We typically don’t see advertised deals for lenses on Black Friday (generally just camera deals), but you never know. Best-sellers below:<\/p>\n Sigma Art Lenses<\/a> have already been discounted ($100-off, Free Dock, 4% rewards on select lenses) and have been very popular this entire week. It’s a great week to invest in some excellent Sigma Art glass.<\/p>\n Refurbished — Likely Starting Midnight ET Tonight<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n The Canon Direct Store<\/a>‘s “Pre-Black Friday Sale” ends tonight, and will likely be followed up with their Black Friday sale at midnight ET tonight<\/i>. It’s customary for them to have a %-off discount on refurbished lenses, and perhaps they’ll do the same on refurbished cameras. You can scope out what you’d like by heading over to our refurbished stock tracker<\/a> and seeing the available inventory. Many desirable items are still in-stock. Setup a notification (or an alarm) and be ready at midnight ET tonight for the sale.<\/p>\n Used dealer KEH Camera<\/a> historically has run their Black Friday deals on the actual day itself, so check back at midnight ET tomorrow (after turkey) for their savings and specials.<\/p>\n Grey Market — Already Started, But Not Impressive<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n In the past the grey market camera deals were the star of the Black Friday deals, but this year they’ve already started and are not impressive. This year they are headlined by the 5D Mark IV for $2549<\/a> and the 6D Mark II for $1499<\/a>. They’re not selling, and we’re not surprised, because the authorized dealer deals are so much better — between the Canon USA warranty, Canon CarePAK PLUS extended warranty, and all the other freebies it’s worth the price differential to go with the authorized dealers.<\/p>\n Accessories — Amazon, Adorama, B&H, and Other Deals<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n Amazon<\/a> has already started their Black Friday Deals Week<\/a>, but the real big deals will begin at 9 PM ET on Thursday<\/i> and last through Black Friday (11:59 PM Pacific Time.) We haven’t seen much yet in their Black Friday Deals Week<\/a> but we’re still holding out hope for great accessories, filters, and 3rd party lens deals during their main event.<\/p>\n B&H and Adorama have been quiet on the accessories front — except for some decent B&H DealZone deals<\/a>, and Adorama FlashPoint XPLOR<\/a> and Speedlight<\/a> deals, or MacBook Pro<\/a> deals. We expect both stores to be active beginning tomorrow and lasting through Cyber Monday with tons of savings on photography accessories.<\/p>\n As always, the deals will be ever changing, so please do check back often, and sign-up for e-mail notifications<\/a> to be the first to hear about the new deals. We’ll be covering the deals 24 hours per day through Cyber Monday. If we miss anything, please be sure to let us know via the contact form<\/a>, and we’d be happy to share it with the CPW community. Thanks for following, and Happy Thanksgiving! We’re grateful for the support that you show us year-round.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here’s a quick summary of what and when to expect from Canon as we head into the Black Friday season.
