Canon 1D X Body and Pixma PRO 100 and Extras for $4609 after $350 MIR (prepaid AMEX GC)

The Canon 1D X II body only goes for $6000 in new condition at authorized dealers (eg B&H Photo with 2% promotional rewards ~ $120 to be used in future purchase), but if you are set on getting the first generation model, the 1D X (Mark I now that there’s a Mark II out), you can get it bundled with the PIXMA PRO 100 printer, a 50pk Canon 13×19″ photo paper, a 32GB Sandisk Extreme, Vello trigger, camera bag for $4609 after a $350 mail-in rebate (prepaid AMEX Gift Card) at B&H Photo…

Since the 1D X has been around for a while, you can also try your luck at the used and refurbished market, for example, the official Canon USA store offers the standard 1D X body only kit in certified refurbished condition for $4239 and a 1-year warranty.

Open-Box Nikon D810 w/24-120 for $2900 + S&H

The Nikon D810 with the 24-120mm standard kit goes for $3200 with some free accessories at authorized dealers (eg Adorama), but if you want to save some and don’t need the extra accessories, B&H Photo is offering this kit in open-box condition for $2900 plus shipping and handling. It comes with a 1-year warranty from B&H Photo, not Nikon; a plus if you don’t like to deal with Nikon’s warranty service 🙂

Canon 1D C Body for $5000

New condition authorized-dealer supplies for the Canon 1D C body only Cinema DSLR are running on the dry side, but if you want it, it is still available in-stock and in new condition for $5000 at B&H Photo. Note that this is sold as non-returnable item. If you have any issues with it, you have to go through the Canon warranty. This is not an uncommon practice for professional video equipment where returns can be used as “temporary rentals” by film makers on a shoestring budget.

PS: I have began a full frame cameras price check for the upcoming “Price Charts” series, this is the first of potentially more full frame discount posts to come (assuming there are more mentionables that is).

Meta: New Price Charts series coming this week

It’s that time of the year again, and a new series of “Price Charts” will be posted this week. I have began the groundwork and these will be posted one a day starting with tomorrow. Please feel free to e-yell at me if I don’t 🙂

PS: if you want to get a feel of what to expect, check the Price Charts Archives with two sets of snapshots so far, mid-November 2015 and late-December 2014. The same categories will continue this year since there hasn’t been a dramatic change in the market. The longer and more reference-y posts will now go to the “main blog”, and the quick and time-sensitive posts will be here at the deals blog.
