Yesterday we broke down the Canon 7D II APS-C Pixma PRO 100 bundle, today it’s full frame day 🙂 We already mentioned the 5D Mark IV bundles, now it is time for the Canon 6D II bundles…

This is another “deal survivor”: offers that went live during Black Friday and Cyber Monday and still continue! The expiration date for this incarnation is Saturday 12/2/17 at 11:59pm ET, but keep in mind, B&H Photo does not accept orders between Friday PM and Saturday PM, so plan accordingly!

It is in-stock and ready to ship as of the time of writing! 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-E6N battery.

The same offer is also available on two other official 6D Mark II kits, in the same bundle of Printer and freebies and rebates as above:

+ 6D II with EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 for $1749 after MIR
+ this is $400 more than the body only

+ 6D II with EF 24-105mm f/4L II for $2249 after MIR
+ this is $900 more than the body only

+ NOTE: the above two bundles come with different 24-105 lenses, so if you are switching between the various listings, make sure you are looking at the correct 24-105 lens bundle when you are ready to order.

These three bundles have the same price deltas in-between them as do the the three standard kits of $1699 (body) and $2099 (+$400) w/24-70 f3.5-5.6 and $2599 (+$900) with 24-105 f4L.

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

This is another “deal survivor”: offers that went live during Black Friday and Cyber Monday and still continue! The expiration date for this incarnation is Saturday 12/2/17 at 11:59pm ET, but keep in mind, B&H Photo does not accept orders between Friday PM and Saturday PM, so plan accordingly!

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 7D II Body & Wifi & Pixma PRO 100 & Paper for $1199 after $350 MIR (prepaid AMEX GC)

The Canon 7D II body only goes for $1500 at authorized dealers (eg B&H Photo and Adorama) or for $1550 bundled with the Canon Wifi kit (eg Amazon itself and B&H Photo).

The body only went for the same price of $1500 when I posted the APS-C DSLR Price Charts three weeks ago. A “smart” way by Canon to increase the price by adding the Wifi to the kit 🙂

However, if you are not afraid of mail-in rebates, you can get a much better deal. Adorama has a Canon 7D Mark II + Pixma PRO 100 printer bundle. You pay $1549 at checkout, receive the order, make sure all is well, file the mail-in rebates per instructions and deadlines, and a few weeks later you’ll receive a $350 prepaid AMEX gift card by mail if all is well. This makes it a $1199 after $350 MIR promotion. For that, you receive:

  • Canon 7D II body only
  • Canon Pixma PRO 100 printer
  • its sidekick, the SG-201 50pk 13×19″ photo paper
  • the W-E1 Wi-Fi Adapter Kit is included as part of the 7D II kit

PS: if you are interested in the 7D II with the 18-135, there’s a parallel offer for $1599 after $350 MIR.

Canon 7D II w/18-135 & Wifi & Pixma PRO 100 & Paper for $1599 after $350 MIR (prepaid AMEX GC)

The Canon 7D Mark II with the 18-135mm lens and the Wifi adapter kit goes for $1950 at authorized Canon USA dealers. Without the Wifi adapter kit, you can get it for $1850 at Adorama in new condition and with a free extra battery.

If you are a fan of imported grey-market cameras, you can get the 7D II with 18-135 in new condition (without the Wifi adapter) for $1409 with free shipping by 6ave on eBAY which includes a 1-year warranty provided by 6ave (not Canon USA).

If you wanna split the difference in terms of price between the two, and yet get more gear, then check out this Adorama 7D Mark II bundle. You pay $1949 at checkout, receive the order, make sure all is well, file the mail-in rebates per instructions and deadlines, and a few weeks later you’ll receive a $350 prepaid AMEX gift card by mail if all is well.

Canon 1D X II drops to $5500

A $200 discount is a pretty nice amount, except when the price of the camera is $5700. Still, $5500 is better than $5700, $200 can get you more memory cards or extra batteries or camera bags 🙂 The 1D X II is now going for $5500 with free accessories at Adorama and 2% promotional rewards (that’s a nice sum of $110 to spend in the future) at B&H Photo.

No freebies at Amazon but that 5% statement credit if you pay with a Prime VISA or Prime Store credit card is $275! Note that the Discover Q4 5% Cashback is limited to $1500 per credit card, so you’ll only get 5% back on the first $1500 of this price.

Canon 77D body drops to $750

Ten days ago when I did a price-check round the Canon 77D body only increased from $800 to $850, but right now, as part of the Black Friday festivities, the 77D body only is down to $750, the 70D with 18-55 for $900 and with 18-135 for $1149. You also get some free accessories that vary by retailer at B&H Photo and Adorama and Amazon itself (no freebies).

PS: we already mentioned the Canon 80D discounts both the new condition and the manufacturer refurbished, so obviously I am not going to create another post for them.

Refurbished Canons: 38+ DSLR kits and 97+ Lenses

There are so many refurbished sales at Canon I can’t process/post them all individually right now, so here is are the overview listing. I don’t know why they create so many listings, and I don’t know if there is complete or partial overlap between the categories. It is situations like these where it would really help if I was IBM’s Watson and could start 200 background process to sort it out!

+ 38 refurbished DSLR kits
+ 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)
+ 6 refurbished lenses
+ 3 refurbished lenses

Refurbished Canon 16-35mm f/2.8L II w/1-YR W for $900

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.

But if you want to save even more, you can get the second generation model, the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II as manufacturer refurbished for $900 at the Canon USA store with a 1-year Canon warranty. It is in-stock as of this post.

Refurbished Canon 35mm f2 IS USM w/1-YR W for $380

The new condition Canon EF 35mm f/2 IS USM lens goes for $499 at authorized Canon USA dealers such as Adorama and Adorama and Amazon. But if you are comfortable with refurbished…

Refurbished Canon 80D w/18-135 & 1-YR W for $949

The new condition Canon 80D with the 18-135mm IS STM lens goes for $1300 but you can zoom in with it for significantly less by getting the manufacturer refurbished condition from the official Canon USA outlet with a 1-year warranty for $949 with free shipping. A “latest generation” with a versatile lens!

Refurbished Canon 70-300/4-5.6 IS USM w/1-YR W for $230

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 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!

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 🙂

Canon 70D body with 70-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM + refurb 430 EX III-RT Flash for $900

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).

Rokinon 24, 35, 50, 85mm T1.5 Cine DS Lens Bundle for $1649

Adorama is offering the Canon EOS Rebel T6i with 18-55 RODE PIXMA kit for $499 after a $350 mail-in rebate (prepaid AMEX gift card). This includes the Canon D-Rebel T6i with 18-55mm IS STM in the Creator/Video/Audio kit with the RODE mic and SD card, along with the PIXMA PRO 100 printer, and its trusty sidekick (50pk SG-201). That’s a nice haul for $500 if you don’t hate mail-in rebates. Or if you like to sell/trade things, that gives you even more flexibility.

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!

The 80D body only goes for $1000, with 18-55 for $1050, with 18-135mm for $1300, and the 18-135 Video Creator kit for $1400. All these options are available by Amazon itself and Adorama and B&H Photo. Depending on the kit, you may get free accessories or promotional rewards.

The above are the standard kits. B&H Photo also has a couple of additional two lens kits where they add the 55-250 lens to the “with 18-55” kit for $1200, or to the “with 18-135” kit for $1450. That’s a +$150 for the 55-250 lens compared to the price without it.
