Price Reduction on Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS II

I just received word that the price on the Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS II has been reduced significantly for a limited time by the combination of a sale price, a rebate offer, and a “4% reward” program at site sponsor B&H. These factors reduce your final cost for this $2500 list price lens to $1899 – before the “4% reward” kicks in, and that should be worth another $75+ or so.

Since this is a “hidden” deal, there are a few instructions to follow:

  1. Follow this link. The price will appear as $2499.
  2. Add it to your cart and  the price at checkout will be $2199.
  3. A $300 cash-back rebate offer reduces your cost to $1899 – be sure to get the rebate form from the order page.
  4. B&H offers and additional “4% reward” that you can use for other purchases at B&H.

If this is a lens that you have been considering, this might be a great time to pick one up! (Update: B&H sent me an email on the morning of Thursday, 11/14 to say that this is a limited offer and that it ends very soon… so don’t wait too long!)

New Canon and Nikon Camera/Lens Bundles

A quick note for folks watching for savings on Nikon and Canon DSLRs and lenses – B&H just announced a set of camera/lens bundles from both brands. Both are available now and are limited-time offers. See the Deals Page on this blog for more information and links to these and other promotions – also including a great Fujifilm X-E1/X-Pro1/lens deal.

(Note that B&H closes for seasonal holidays starting tomorrow – Wednesday, September 4 through Saturday, September 7. You can order right now, or wait a bit longer.)

B&H Holiday Closure Reminder

A reminder that site-sponsor B&H Photo closes in a few days for Passover, and orders placed after noon EDT on Sunday, March 24th may not ship until they reopen. Here is their statement:

Upcoming Passover Closing

“B&H will be closed from Monday, March 25th in the observance of Passover and will reopen on Wednesday, April 3rd at 9:00AM EDT. Place your order by 12:00PM Noon EDT on Sunday, March 24th in order to ship before the Holiday. Orders placed after this time will ship when we reopen. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patronage.”

You might want to consider this if you plan to order something in the next week or two or if you have been waiting to take advantage of some of the promotions and bundles that expire at the end of March, including several from companies like Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, and more. (See the Deals page for links to some of these specials.)
