Only today: Canon EOS 7D -$200 at B&H
B&H offers a very interesting deal on the Canon EOS 7D body that expires today.
Regardless of the meaning of this huge sale here’s a chance to get a new 7D at a very affordable price.
Why this deal is interesting even though the new & cheaper EOS T4i/650D (Review here: LINK) offers some better features and the identical feature:
Because Canon announced a significant firmware update for the 7D that will bring manual audio during recording. Scheduled for August: LINK
And because Mosaic Engineering released their anti aliasing filter that impressed us and shows that the 7D still has balls. Review here: LINK
Canon 7D for $1345 (only today) at B&H
Sigma also wants to sell stuff – up to 20% off
Canon has been teasing us with their announcements of their SuperHDSLRs. That’s nice but for many these are just too highly priced, unreasonably so, I might add, if technology were to be invested right we could have had the perfect HDSLR a long while ago.
In the meantime we might as well find the Supercheap HDSLR.
Here’s a good start: Sigma now offers their new superzoom 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 II DC OS for $399 instead of $499. This lens was introduced last year, offers optical image stabilization and improvements over the previous model. As HDSLRs become more and more light sensitive there’s lesser need for expensive glass. If you’ve got a high ISO camera and are not the lens switcher type this deal might be a good one for you. Of course the higher f-Stop lens will deliver less of that shallow depth of field we’ve begun to love so much.
The other lenses are the 17-50mm F2.8 and the 105mm f/2.8 for $594 and $769. All lenses are available with Canon, Nikon and Sony mount.
