+ 21 refurbished DSLR kit
+ nine refurbished DSLR kits

+ 97 refurbished lenses and flashes and such
+ 11 refurbished lenses
+ 7 refurbished lenses (some are EF-M)

As the “IS” hints, this has a CCD sensor. It is in-stock as of the time of writing. That was smart, the zoom ratio is in part of the mode name 🙂

The latest model is the Canon EF 16–35mm f/2.8L III lens that goes with an “L flagship” price of $1999 in new condition at authorized Canon dealers like Amazon and such. The previous generation is the “II” and it goes for $1300 in new condition at authorized dealers such as Adorama.

The latest model is the Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM, going for $500 in new condition at authorized Canon USA dealers such as B&H Photo and Adorama. The first generation goes for $450 in new condition. Given the $50 price different, if you are gonna get the first generation…

… then you might as well get it in manufacturer refurbished condition with a 1-year Canon USA warranty for $230 with free shipping from the official Canon USA store. That’s almost half the price! Zoom-zoom!

Refurbished Canon SX530 HS (50x) w/1-YR W for $140

The Canon SX530 superzoom (50x optical) dropped $50 to $230 new condition at authorized dealers with some free accessories such as B&H Photo and Adorama and Amazon, but if you want to save more, keep on reading…

It is in-stock as of the time of writing. I am writing this because some of the refurbished Canons go out of stock and can be hard to spot because only a tiny bit changes on their product page. Zooming Temptation!

Given the price, you are paying $2.80 per zoom ratio 😉

Refurbished Canon D-Rebel T6 w/18-55 & 75-300 for $250

The D-Rebel T6 in gray looks nice, but if you are looking for an entry-level entry-point into the Canon DSLR system without breaking the bank, the Canon USA outlet store is offering the standard black color scheme of this manufacturer refurbished Canon D-Rebel T6 two-lens kit for $250 with free shipping and a 1-year warranty. The lenses are the 18-55 and 75-300, the standard two-lens kit. No need to fight the crowds at Fry’s 🙂 It is in-stock as of the time of writing!

Now shipping: Canon D-Rebel T6 in Gray (with 18-55 IS STM)

For collectors and completists mayhaps, of fans of all things gray, the official Canon USA store now has in-stock the Canon D-Rebel T6 in a Gray color scheme bundled with the standard 18-55 IS STM lens for $400. This is an available alert of a limited edition color, not a deal!

It kinda looks nice:

Canon SL1 with 18-55 and refurb 55-250 for $500

If of all the Canon APS-C DSLRs out there it is the Canon SL1 the one you want, in the black color scheme (not the Stormtrooper), the Canon USA outlet store created a Black Friday Bundle for it for $500. You get the new condition Canon SL1 with 18-55 IS STM plus the refurbished 55-250mm f4-5.6 IS STM along with a bag and 8GB SD card. One year warranty with new or refurbished items purchased there. It is in-stock as of the time of writing.

I think we found their theme here, just like the 70D black friday bundle, they took a new previous-generation DSLR kit and bundled it with a refurbished item. Interesting development 🙂

PS: another option is the manufacturer refurbished 70D with 18-135 IS STM for $790. No flash here though.

Canon Outlet Black Friday sales

The official Canon USA store too has launched their Black Friday sales! I totally forgot about them! I will be digging into them and spotlighting select features. Their new condition sales are mostly similar to what you find at authorized Canon dealers but they have exclusive access to their own manufacturer refurbished!

UPDATE: You can find the spotlighted (spotlit?) deals as I post them under the Canon category.

White Canon SL2 w/18-55 drops to $599

A new Star Wars movie is less than a month away, and if you are feeling unofficial Stormtrooper pride, the white color scheme of the Canon SL2 with the 18-55mm IS STM lens is now down to $599 with free shipping as well (this was released a few weeks ago, long after the original black SL2 came out) at Amazon by Amazon itself and at B&H Photo with free 16GB Sandisk Extreme SDHC and Corel Paintshop PRO 2018 (in case you want to correct the Stormtrooper’s shooting in post).

Canon 80D body for $1000, w/18-55 for $1050, w/18-135 for $1300, w/18-135 Video $1400

The Canon 80D body went for $1100 when I posted the APS-C DSLR price charts but the Black Friday madness has brought a discount to this Canon camera too!

Before Canon took mirrorless more seriously, they tried to tempt mirrorless-tempted photographers with their new SL-series. Fast forward to now, the Canon SL2 body only is down to $499 with free shipping at BuyDIG and Adorama and various at Amazon… This went for $550 a couple of weeks ago when I posted the APS-C dSLR price charts

Canon 5D Mark IV Body with BG-E20 Battery Grip and Pixma PRO 100 printer and Extras for $2849 after $350 MIR

If you are not afraid of mail-in rebates and prepaid gift cards, B&H Photo has a Canon 5D Mark IV body only bundle for $2849 after a $350 mail-in rebate (prepaid AMEX GC). For that you get the Canon 5D Mark IV body only, the Canon BG-E20 battery grip, the Pixma PRO 100 printer and its 50pk SG-201 paper sidekick, a 64GB Sandisk Extreme SDXC and an extra Canon LP-E6N battery.

Canon 6D II Body with BG-E21 Battery Grip and Pixma PRO 100 printer and Extras for $1349 after $350 MIR

If you are not afraid of mail-in rebates, B&H Photo has a 6D Mark II Body Bundle for $1349 after a $350 mail-in rebate (prepaid AMEX GC). You get the 6D Mark II body only, the Canon BG-E21 battery grip, the Pixma PRO 100 printer and its 50pk SG-201 paper sidekick, a 64GB Sandisk Extreme SDXC and an extra Canon LP-E6 battery.

Canon EF 75-300mm f4-5.6 III USM for $100

A new offer went live at Adorama, the new condition Canon EF 75-300mm F/4-5.6 III USM is on sale for $99 with free expedited shipping and $4 in promotional rewards (to be used in the future at Adorama). This is the USM version of the lens. The one found in most Canon DSLR two-lens kit bundles is the non-USM version.

Imported Canon 5D Mark IV body with 1-YR Seller W for $2550

For $2849, you can get a loaded Canon 5D Mark IV bundle after mail-in rebate, but if you don’t want to deal with mail-in rebates, and don’t need/want the printer and the battery grip, AND you are comfortable with imported cameras…

… to the eBay Deals we go, where eBay seller “6ave” (98.9%) is offering it in new condition imported-grey market with a 1-year seller warranty (not Canon USA warranty) for $2550 with free shipping.

So it’s a game of trade offs:
+ mail-in rebate and prepaid gift card
+ USA warranty VS seller warranty
+ extra Printer and Battery Grip
+ A-list seller vs eBay seller
+ higher price vs lower price
+ sell/trade extras or no wish to do that

PS: we have a relatively new tag, Full Frame Deals that marks all the cameras that have a 35mm full frame sensor, whether they are DSLRs, mirrorless, fixed lens, or floating lens cube.

PS2: “W” is short for Warranty. With this blog template, I am trying to keep blog-post-titles one line long. If it goes for more than one line, it better make use of most of the second line, otherwise it’s wasted space. Although some could argue this whole blog is wasted space 😉

Canon 5D Mark IV Body with BG-E20 Battery Grip, Pixma PRO 100, Extras for $2849 after $350 MIR (prepaid AMEX)

Full frame party! This Canon 5D Mark IV body only bundle at B&H Photo gets you the following items for $2849 after a $350 mail-in rebate (prepaid AMEX gift card):

+ Canon 5D Mark IV body only kit
+ Canon BG-E20 Battery Grip
+ Canon Pixma PRO 100 printer
+ its trusty sidekick the 50pk of 13×19″ photo paper
+ 64GB Sandisk Extreme PRO
+ extra Watson battery

This is a pretty good deal on its own, without even factoring in the mail-in rebate. The 5D IV body only went for $3300 on its own (without the printer and battery grip) a couple of weeks ago when I posted the Full Frame Price Charts.

Refurbished Canon D-Rebel T6 w/18-55 & 75-300 & 1-YR Warranty for $310
