Canon Permanent Price Drop on 24 Lenses

As previously posted, Canon has now instituted a price drop on 24 lenses, including most of the popular lenses. A large drop (up to $800) was seen on super-telephoto lenses. Our street prices on lenses have already been lowered as a result of this drop. This is a permanent price drop, not an instant or mail-in rebate.

We’re also seeing a new instant rebate on the EOS-1D X. This has also resulted in a new street price of $4899, the lowest seen yet.

    Just curious… except for the teleconverters, the price drop was exclusively on “L” glass. Do you think it’s because there are higher margins on “L” glass or does it has something to do with where they’re manufactured?

      They likely had higher margins on “L” glass. Much of the non-L glass has come down significantly in price recently (the new prime-IS series, the EF-S lenses; the older primes and consumer zooms are already very competitively priced.)
