Because of the Memorial Day holiday (shopping) weekend, we start our weekly "Weekend Shopper" a day early, and quite a few dollars short! Beat the early cyber-crowds by starting early! This post will grow in size as we run into things of interest. We start with just two cameras!
| Camera | |
| Sigma DP1 | Yes, a discount! The Sigma DP1 is now down to $761 at Amazon. For our coverage of the DP1, be sure to check all the posts with the Sigma DP1 mania tag. |
| Detailed Canon Instant Rebates page | A very detailed look at the Canon Instant Rebates, and also the $50 Digital Rebel mail-in upgrader rebate, which is not getting as much love as the instant rebates, but can (or could have already) saved you $50, and you just didn't know about it! Read on to find out more! |
| Canon 5D | The Armies of Full Frame have taken a step closer to the mass market as the 5D is now officially under $2000 in the post-instant-rebate era. While there are rumors of a 5D Mark II, the Mark I is the only that you can actually take pictures with. Unless you print the rumors and make a pinhole camera out of them :) The 5D goes for $1900 body only and $2600 with the EF 24-105 f4 LISUSM (L + IS + USM) lens. Available at Amazon, Adorama and B&H Photo and many other reputable and not-so-reputable places. |
| Canon 40D | Thank you instant rebates say the EOS fans looking for a 40D or 5D or select lenses and accessories. The 40D has now become, overnight almost, the bang for the buck non-entry-level DSLR in the current market. The price of $940 for body only or $1130 bundled with the EF 28-135 is a temptation for both EOS and non-EOS fans. Available at B&H Photo, Adorama, and Amazon among many other places. |
| Pentax Gear Up Rebates | The new Pentax Gear Up rebate program encourages spending, the more you spend, the more you save. A maximum of $375 in savings if you buy the max five items allowed. Included K20D, K200D, lenses and more |
| Kelby Training DVD | Educational super-site Kelby Training is having a Memorial Day DVD sale where you can get 50% of some of the traning DVDs there! |
| Cosina 70-210 f4.5-5.6 MC AF | Looking for an extra, disposable or experimental lens to play with? The Cosina 70-210 for the Nikon mount is offered by 47th Street on Amazon for $40 plus $8 shipping. |
| Nikon D40 kit +warranty | Cameta is offering the Nikon D40 with the 18-55 DX lens and a two year Nikon warranty for $440 plus $10 shipping |
| Nikon D60 two lens kit | With the D40/D40x slowly fading out from the spotlight, Nikon wants to give people more reasons to take a look at the Nikon D60. And the two-lens kit, which includes the D60, the 18-55 DX VR and 55-200 DX VR lenses, along with two Nikon school DVDs is now down to $800 at Cameta on Amazon, plus $15 S&H. Also available at Adorama at $828 with free shipping. |
| Panasonic FZ18 | Zoom! Zoom! Panasonic's first hyperzoom (18X zoom ratio) is back again to the tempting price of $300. The more popular black (FZ18K) edition is available through Adorama and J&R World upon Amazon. Meanwhile the silver edition is offered by Vanns on Amazon. The FZ18 was announced in late July 2007, so it is reasonable to expect a replacement when Panasonic makes their summer/fall Photokina-bound announcements. |
| Dell Precision M6300 | If you are looking for a road warrior's warrior laptop, one option is the Dell Precision M6300 Mobile Workstation |
| Fuji A805 blue bundle | The blue Fuji A805 special bundle is a Friday-only deal at Staples and goes for $100. This includes the Fuji A805 (not A850), a camera case and two Fuji AA NiMH batteries with charger. This is Staples item #738263. Just search for that at Staples.com |
