Thread: Lens Shopping on Cyber Monday

    Default Lens Shopping on Cyber Monday


    Being cyber Monday, I thought this might be worth asking. For Christmas I want to get a little better lens for my camera and I have settled on a Canon 70-200mm F/2.8 L without IS. So far, the best prices I can find are $1,189 from Accessory Circuit and $1,199 from Amazon. I think I trust Amazon a little more but was wondering what others thought of the price.

    Thanks,

    Compare it with B&H and Adorama's prices. They're the benchmarks for respectable "on line" pricing.

    Going with someone you trust is always worth more than saving a few dollars.

    Sound advice - right now they are all pretty close in price which lends me to beleive that the deal is not goingt to get much better.

    Watch out for Accessory Circuit... Here is a thread that Bruce Started

    Just watch out for Bait and Switch... As Glenn said, stick with the reputable dealers, for an extra $50 or $100 I would rather be safe then sorry.
