Great deal on the Canon 5D Mark III

Great deal on the Canon 5D Mark III

Dec 27

Keeping an eye out for a great price on a top end camera?  We just spotted an outstanding deal over at Amazon on the Canon 5D Mark III.  We felt we had to pass this along as you don’t see this kind of price come around very often.

Here’s how it works.  The listed price is $2,975.00.  They’re offering a standard Amazon reward of 2%, with an extra 4% rewards until January 1st.  This reward is basically a credit that can be used later to purchase items from Amazon.com.  With the rewards factored in, the price on the camera comes down to $2,796.50.  Act fast as this kind of price is rarely seen on this kind of high-end camera.

We have great housings for this camera in stock from Ikelite, Sea & Sea, Aquatica and Nauticam.  Please note: we are not an Amazon affiliate, we just felt this was a really good deal.  Check out Underwater Photographer Todd Winner’s thoughts on the 5D Mark III.
