    Lots of Canon cashbacks. £100 off a EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS

    Looks like Canon are about to offer some cashbacks on their lenses:

    EOS 5D body £100
    EOS 30D body £65
    EOS 400D Body £50
    EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM £130
    EF100-400mm 4.5-5.6 L IS USM £50
    EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM £65
    EF 300mm f/4L IS USM £80
    EF 180 mm f/3.5L Macro USM £45
    EF 24mm f/1.4L USM £100
    EF 35mm f/1.4L USM £100
    EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM £45
    EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM £80
    EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM £30
    EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM £33
    EF 135mm f/2.0L USM £33
    EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM £50
    EF 200mm f/2.8L II USM £33
    EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM £100
    EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM £33
    EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM £20
    Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX £20
    EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM £13
    EF 50mm f/1.4 USM £13
    Extender EF 1.4x II £10
    Speedlite 430EX £10

    The thing that stands out for me is the EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM £100 coming down to effectively £240. At that price, I may just have to buy it.
    Anyone got one?
    It would be nice to get a 17-40L like my brother has, but it's over twice to price now of the 17-85.

    I've got the 17-85mm IS, it's lovely - imo!

    £50 off the 10-22mm. Hmmmmmm, if only I was wealthy

    Had my eye on the EF-S 17-85mm IS for a while, I think I may have to buy one now.

    BTW, where are you getting that £340 price tag for it from?

    the 17-85 is my standard all purpose lens at the moment. very nice. it is quite heavy and chunky with all the IS gubbins in there, but they do come in handy.

    very tempted with the 10-22, fancied one of them for a while.
