The Canon 5D Mark III dropped to $3199 last week, which was the cheapest we’ve seen it thus far. Now, the 5D Mark III is down to $2994 at B&H Photo, which puts it even with its chief rival, the Nikon D800.
Also, the 5D Mark III w/ 24-105mm f/4L IS kit lens is down to $3749.
B&H has dropped the prices on the Canon 5D Mark III and Mark II models.
The 5D Mark III is priced at $3199 now (down from $3459).
The 5D mark II is priced at $1699 now (down from $1799).
It looks like Amazon and Adorama are also showing the same prices on the 5D Mark III, which means this comes from Canon and makes me wonder if Canon is feeling the pressure from Nikon and not moving as many of the higher-priced 5D Mark IIIs in comparison to Nikon’s D800 (which is still cheaper, BTW).
At $1699, the 5D Mark II is the cheapest full frame camera by a long shot over the new, “affordable” Canon 6D and Nikon D600. And, despite its age, is still a very solid camera.
Nikon’s DSLR & lens rebates were extended through October 27, which now puts them near an end (this coming Saturday). Deals are available on the Nikon D800, D7000, D4 and several other Nikon DSLRs. Check them out here at B&H Photo.
Canon is serving up a $400 instant rebate on the Canon 5D Mark II, which is likely being pushed aside now that the Canon 6D has landed. This puts the Canon 5D Mark II body at $1799 shipped and the 5D Mark II + 24-105mm f/4L kit lens at $2499 shipped.
This massive price drop makes the 5D Mark II the cheapest full frame camera on the market in spite of the low starting prices of the new Canon 6D and Nikon D600.
Adorama has a killer deal on the Sony NEX-5N for only $369 (compare to $600 full retail). This is a solid deal that I would expect to disappear soon. Check it out while it lasts here on Adorama.
