It seems that B&H Photo has a pro discount code. So if I'm the last one to know this go ahead and lock this thread. If someone has a better code..post it up. Camera bodies seem to be good deals. Not all products are reduced.

CODE: psnov

1. Enter the code in search box and search
2. Select item you want and enter into shopping cart
3. Check out as normal

I just ordered Canon 580EX Speedlite

REG: 379.00 + 9.40 shipping less 15 rebate = net $373.40

CODE: 359.95 + 9.40 shipping less 15 rebate = net $354.35

Savings = $19.05

I will write up a review in a few weeks once I get a chance to play with it.

 

Very nice

 

some know it, some don't =)

I saved ~ $100 on the Canon 70-200 f/2.8L IS; too bad some people don't know it and are paying the normal price.

 

I want to get a 1D Mark II N - any idea what a 20D with less than 10,000 clicks is worth these days?

 

Not as much as you might think... I would check Ebay and see what they are getting. Personally, I would just hold onto it as a backup camera for the 1D... It's still a good camera and is probably worth more to keep it.

As for the orginal post.... Thanks for posting the code. I personally didn't know about it, so thanks!

 

Without the code the Nikon 12-24 is $894.25 after $25 rebate
With the code the its $889.95 (no word about rebate)

Is there a $25 mail in rebate with the code?

 

Used 20D's are going for like 700ish... 750 something like that.

 

I don't know why not. Rebate is Manufacture based. Unless these are not US products (and B&H clearly tells you IMPORT) then there should have no issue.

UPS Code, Product Registration and Receipt is all you need for Rebates.

Even with your example there is still a savings.

 

How much of a difference is the 1.3 to 1.6 crop factor? For $500+ is it really worth holding onto the 20D? I do enjoy having the extra distance on my 200mm lens, but I really want the extra focus points and a little wider range on some other lenses. I'm still trying to decide if those extra focus points are worth another $3,000 though

What are the 1D Mark II N's going for on the used market? They're good up to 80,000 clicks right? Or is it 100,000 clicks?

I really want the S, but that's another $3,000 on top of the N

 

The rebates work fine since they have no effect from the B&H discount code. I bought my 16-35 and 70-200 during Canon's Spring '06 rebates. I got the $100 back in about 3 weeks after sending in the info, which is decent. Some places can take 6-8 weeks.
