It really depends on how much you shop at B&H (or buy electronics in general) and what the sales tax is in your state. For one purchase, it's probably not worth it. If you buy stuff all the time, it pays WAY better than any other credit card's reward program.
Did Canon paint themselves into a corner this year? They drop the price on the R, but the R glass is expensive (most of it). They don't really have any stellar sales on EF lenses, but could people be holding out to see what the R/RF system pans out? Why invest in a dead EF system if you are willing to by the R camera? I don't buy the compatibility theory. If you by an R, you are going to want RF lenses, but they are freaking expensive today - in the future that may be different.
Maybe I'm seeing things that don't exist because I already own what's on sale this year.... :)
No "Maybe" about it.
While I agree that it is interesting that Canon is discounting some of their traditional DSLRs, the EF system is hardly "dead." And, if you buy an "R" you only want RF lenses if you don't own a DSLR, don't use the same focal length on both bodies or if the lens is cheap enough and used frequently enough that it is worthwhile to duplicate the lens in both systems (the 24-105 would be an example).
Instead of assuming some major strategy about lens sales, why not just accept the simple and obvious answer. All camera manufacturers are hurting. We are in the middle of the biggest period for sales in the U.S. (And, probably Europe as well). We are near the end of the year/quarter. Canon wants to end the year with strong sales and take advantage of consumers having more money in their pockets. These are not entry level Rebels, but cameras that lock people into the Canon ecosystem.
The RP is becoming extremely tempting at that price...
Do you happen to know if the $200 code works on the EOS R body with bundled accessories? They're offering EOS R body with EF adaptor only over the phone. Thanks!
The promo code works for EOS R with 24-240 ($1998) and 24-105 L lens ($2199). When put the code online, it showed the $200 discounted price online. Hence i am assuming it can be ordered online as well.
There is an accessories kit option (bag, card etc), but i dont know if it works. perhaps not.
Hope this helps.
I am sure the email with code went to all folks who buy from bhvideo or folks who are on their system. I am sure if you call them or chat with them online, they will send an email with code.
as I mentioned in my earlier reply to another person, the new EOS R at bhvideo after $200 discount is $1299 including the adapter plus tax.
For me, the RP would be an upgrade from the 80D (and get me a foot in the door of RF), but the RP would eventually be my second body... I'm also still waiting for my future "first" model to be announced :)
