Deal Alert: Nikon D90 for $789 + Free Overnight Shipping

By

B&H Photo has a solid deal on the Nikon D90 for $789 for the body only.

You can also pick up a kit with the D90 and 18-105mm VR lens for $1025.

Finally, you can take advantage of an instant rebate and get the D90, 18-105mm VR and 70-300mm VR lens for $1395.  The Nikon 70-300mm VR lens currently runs $540 by itself, so the rebate can save you real money.

To top it all off, B&H has free overnight shipping to get it to you in time for Christmas.

Amazon has the same prices for the Nikon D90, but with free 2-day shipping, so your time is a little more limited there.

Canon 5D Price Dropping

By

The Canon 5D Mark II has not even begun to ship yet and we’re already seeing the original Canon 5D take a hit in price.  Just last week, I noticed the Canon 5D + EF 24-105mm L lens was around $2700 for the kit at Amazon.  Now, the original 5D combo is available for $2590.  Also, the Canon 5D body is now selling for under $2k.

So, if you can’t swing a 5D Mark II, you might consider the original 5D at a substantial discount.  Personally, I’m drooling over the kit’s price point right now.

Canon Rebel XSi Steal at $599.99

By

Dell has a killer deal on the Canon Rebel XSi at $599.99 after $80 off with coupon code $GLW7$3SFZ930$

It was a great deal a couple weeks back when it was $629.99 for a day. This is awesome though, particularly considering that Amazon is selling it for $654.95.  I paid $900 for this kit 6 months ago – *sigh.

You must use the coupon code above to get your $80 off. The promotion is good through October 30, 2008 or after 500 purchases, whichever comes first.

By

Good news for those of you that weren’t quite ready to pull the trigger on the Nikon D700.  It looks like we’ll be seeing the Nikon D700 selling for $2699 or less for the foreseeable future.

Although I haven’t seen an official statement from Nikon on the price drop, many trusted retailers have already implemented it.  Amazon’s actually got it priced much less for the time being.

Here’s a rundown of the sale prices at trusted online retailers (as of the time of this posting):

Amazon – $2519.97

Adorama – $2679.00

B&H Photo – $2699.95

Ritz Camera – $2699.95
