Canon needs to hook us up w/a deal over in US - our economies in the dumper we need all the rebates possible

Thats exactly what happened here in sweden at my local store.

Hi folks,

As I write if you go to http://canon2008promotions.onlinerebates.com/ and click on your country in Europe the resultant web-page includes what will be the link to the new Canon Cash Back promotion running from 01/03/08 - 30/06/08. The link is currently not active (21:45 GMT) but I guess it will become so in the next few hours. Happy shopping.

Bob.

hooray!
christmas is coming early

.
Even earlier in Turkey as just after I posted I noticed that the Turkish link was already active. Looks as though Canon has spent considerable effort timing the activation of the links. Completely pointless, IMO, as you already heard the news first here on CameraLabs.

EDIT: Well, it's now tomorrow and none of the links are active (the Turkish one turned out to be to a link to the last promotion!). Seems fairly typical for the speed with which the Canon Europe sites are updated with new content.

Bob.

Very tempted by the EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM but budget considerations may force the EF 17-40mm f/4.0L USM. Might be nothing though.

I planned to buy a 40D + 17-85 lens. I actually bought the combo already but had err99 and I got a refund because the store had no stock.

Since I have a 400D, I thought I'd wait when this camera breaks then replace it, when that time comes, maybe 50D or 60D or 5D MK2 will be out .

I got myself a Sigma 10-20 (just bought a few days ago). I sold my "grey" 24-105L and planning to replace it with Uk version . YES I'm insane!
