In light of their blockbuster deal on the 5D Mark IV<\/a>, we’re getting a ton of questions about Samy’s Camera<\/b><\/a>. We answer below.<\/p>\n

Are they a reputable authorized dealer?<\/b><\/p>\n

They are a Canon authorized dealer with multiple physical stores located in California. They’re a very reputable dealer founded in 1976, we’ve listed them before on our site. There should be no concerns about purchasing from this dealer.<\/p>\n

What is this deal that everyone is excited about?<\/b><\/p>\n

Samy’s<\/b><\/a> has a super hot bundle of the EOS 5D Mark IV<\/a>, a genuine Canon BG-E20 Battery Grip<\/a> and a G-Technology 2TB HDD for only $1779.00<\/b><\/a> — you need to use coupon code “CANON399”<\/b><\/span> to see the discount at checkout.<\/p>\n

This is incredible because Canon just lowered the price on the body from $2499 to $1999. Samy’s is first discounting it an additional $220, then throwing in a BG-E20 battery grip (current retail: $200). If that’s not enough, they’re also including the free hard drive and 3% rewards ($54) towards a future purchase.<\/p>\n

If Samy’s doesn’t collect tax to your state, this deal is a total no-brainer. If they do collect tax, it may still be the best deal, but there are a few other options to consider:<\/p>\n
