bmw_38 Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Hi Guys, Anyone know of good deals on Canon lenses? I'm thinking about upgrading to some L glass or maybe a good third-party maker like a Tokina 11-16. I know these don't go on sale much but I thought I'd reach out!

mrn8 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Canon L series don't really go on clearance. Sometime you can get a nice rebate if you purchase it with a printer or camera body, but I've not seen a steep price-cut for a holiday. I've found a lot of great deals on used equipment in the past, though. My 70-200 f/4L was used when I got it and you wouldn't be able to tell if it hadn't come in a plain white box.

mrn8 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Here's the best I've, but you have to bundle it with a camera body: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?Q=newsLetter%2FCanon-Double-Rebates-2.jsp&A=getpage&O=RootPage.jsp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgmommie Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 My son has a Canon Rebel he bought this summer, and I was hoping to get him a telephoto zoom lens (think that's what it's called) for Christmas but they cost about $300. Definitely needing to find a deal on one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freesia39 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 It's hard to find deals on lenses. You can try to find them used, otherwise the price doesn't fluctuate that much. If he hasn't bought this lens yet, it's a great all around lens:http://www.amazon.com/Canon-50mm-1-8-Camera-Lens/dp/B00007E7JU/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1322323850&sr=8-8Love mine. I leave it on all the time. It's fixed (no "zoom") but for the price, great quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Lady Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 My local camera store had a flyer over the weekend with had a bunch of lenses that are being offer with a rebate now. I'd check the Canon site to see if anything is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
