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

Leave a comment

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!)

Discounts on Fujifilm X-E1, X-Pro1, and Fujifilm lenses

Leave a comment

The camera/lens bundle deals on Fujifilm X-Series camera lenses have returned. The timing couldn’t be better, as I just posted my extensive review of my Fujifilm X-E1 and lenses two days ago: “Taking Stock of the Fujifilm X-E1 Mirrorless Camera.” (Earlier posts on this camera system include “Fujifilm X-E1: From DSLR to Mirrorless” and “More Thoughts About the Fujifilm X-E1.”)

If you are considering getting the X-E1 or  X-Pro1, this is a great opportunity to up save up to $300 on Fujifilm X-E1/X-Pro 1 cameras and a lens. If you need to buy more than one lens, the discounts can be “stacked” to include up to 5 lenses, with potential savings of up to $1050. Few may actually buy all five of the eligible lenses, but there are several ways in which three lenses can make a very versatile starting kit.
