Canon 7D on Amazon lightning deal at 5pm tonight

[Brettus]

Just a heads up, might be of interest to someone*cough*Richie*cough* but thought I'd mention it. :)

[Sir Trev]

Hmmm... A quick comparison of the £699 Amazon "deal" shows that this is the normal price on the Jessops and Wex websites right now. Some internet shops are down to just over £600 too. The 7D is several years old now and the Mark2 version is out hence the lowering prices.


Not suggesting it would be a poor choice but I do question the sales tactics.

[Brettus]

Amazon's deal price is £624, not great as you say but the deal price isn't known until it goes live 22% sold so far so guess it isn't selling quick either. Ah well, might've been a good deal.

Looking at a Canon 6D :)
but need to find a cheap one maybe around the £1100 price :)

Park cameras have the 6D body only today for £1169

[Richie]

Good news, All but one of my old camera Len's will fit the 6D :)

[Richie]

Better news, I've just bought a Canon 6D with battery grip :)
Happy Bunny :)

[littleoldman2]

Happy days:)

[Bluepete]

Nice one! You'll probably need to add 2/3 stop compensation on the rear dial. It's a 6D thing apparently.

Pete ;)

[Richie]

do we get to do a secret 6D hand shake next time we meet... lol :)

[Brettus]

I'm WAY too jealous here :-) but you guys make much better use anyway. Looking forward to what you produce with it!
Still getting to grips with yours BP?

[mister c]

I got my 7D from the far east for £560 posted. I love it to bits, definitely worth the money.

Hope you enjoy the 6D Richie, seen some of the results & they get the big thumbs up :)

Just a slight bump on this thread, rather than starting a new one.

There's a deal on Amazon for this lens, for Cannon & Nikon

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tamron-70-300-4-5-6-Lens-Nikon/dp/B003YUBTIA

It was from HotdealsUK

[Richie]

Just bought myself a new 17-40mm lens for the full frame canon 6d :)

haven't told other 0.5

so If you don't here from me in the next day or so, please contact Bluepete and ask him to start an investigation :)

[maviczap]

Yep, although he's off with a knackered hamstring so you might need to get hold of Colombo or Kojak

Mind you ive just bought myself a battery powerd pressure washer for christmas so i might need to seek shelter too.
