In case you don’t have your calendar marked, Canon’s Instant Rebate promotion for the Digital Rebel-series, 40D, 50D, flashes and lenses expires on January 17, 2009.  That’s just a smidgen over 3 weeks from now.

As has been the case for the past couple of years, all of these savings are instant rebates, which means they are applied to your purchase at the time it is made – no worries about mailing in UPCs and receipts.

Amazon has a special page set up for all the cameras, lenses and flashes. (See Amazon.com)

The full set of lenses and flashes are listed below along with the rebate amount. Links will take you to the Amazon pages for each particular item. I also recommend Adorama and B&H Photo as trustworthy and reliable online retailers.
