Canon EOS Rebel T4i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital SLR with 18-55mm EF-S IS II Lens + Canon 55-250mm IS Lens + Canon PIXMA Pro 9500 Printer $798 ar free shipping

Quote from kavi_nash : Yes, D7000 reviews are better than T4i. However, D7000 is two years older model :X

next question is, do you know how to fully utilize these superior specs when it comes to taking quality pictures or is it all wishy washy? its like a pro racer saying tires X is .25 seconds faster than Tire Y. to the normal Joe, it doesn't mean sh*t, go with whats cheaper. :p

Nikon looks dark to me. Not sure if its actually a better picture that needs post processing but people keep saying nikon looks underexposed and all the image samples on dpreview.com look darker than the canons. I keep reading everywhere that canon is ahead right now, but maybe just on their highest end models.
What exactly are the specifications of this camera lense coupon? must it be that camera and that lense? cause the rebate has many more options than the t4i. Really id just like to have the t3i I don't need the t4i.

hate the MIR

How is this a deal? Wasn't this (without printer) selling for 699 on Adorama?

I got my T1i a couple years back when they had the camera + printer + rebates and stuff at Amazon. Then I sold the printer for like $300 and ended up with an awesome camera for like $350 or less.

Yes, and that was a great deal as well. So take a great deal, add $100 to it, and get a printer that you can sell for $250. How is that not a deal? There's a lot more hassle to this one with the massive rebate, but it's an even better deal than that one if you don't mind the work.

Yeah, I'm thinking with this bundle I can sell my T1i on eBay along with all these lenses and the printer, and keep the T4i for free or better.

Quote from gray2soon : Just bought the Canon Pro9000 printer on Craigslist for $100 and that included a pack of 13" x 19" paper and Adobe Photoshop Elements 11. All new and never opened and works like a charm. I got a good deal but think I just lucked out! Of course that isn't the Pro9500.

Yeah you got a great deal. If you sold that all on eBay after shipping and fees (and I've done it) your net would be about $170-$180 or so.

Adorama's deal was better. I got mine with $1128-$400 rebate last time ended up 728 for the same thing. I will sell the printer too anyway.

Different printer...

That was a lower model printer.

This will be a bit of a PITA to deal with both the mail in rebate and selling the printer.. but worth it in the end. Here's how the math works out:

+ 699.00 = EOS T4i with 18-55mm Lens
+ 299.00 = EF-S 55-250mm telephoto
+ 499.00 PIXMA Pro 9500 Mark II
+ 7.00 shipping
- 200.00 coupon (CO1121126112) for lens bundle

1304.99 Total, shipped.

- 500.00 mail in rebate
- 300.00 when I sell the printer on Craigslist or Ebay (lowest online price on PIXMA Pro 9500 Mark IIis Ebay at 329.00.. and starts at 549 and up from non Ebay sources [google.com]... really good printer... I just don't need it.)

$504.00 = Grand Total for Canon EOS Digital Rebel T4i 18MP SLR Camera w/ 18-55mm Lens + 55-250mm IS Lens

Not a great deal when you have to sell a printer to bring down the cost of the camera. For me, if the printer is so great, why do they bundle it? Maybe because most folks would never buy the printer in the first place.

for an ACCURATE resale price of the printer on ebay look at COMPLETED items.
Just because it is listed on ebay for several prices does not mean they will fetch that price.
