Canon EOS Digital Rebel T4i 18MP SLR Camera w/ 18-55mm Lens + 55-250mm IS Lens + AmazonBasics Backpack + 16GB Transcend Class 10 SDHC Memory Card + UV Filter $704 + Free Shipping

might just be best to get the body and 18-135 for $799, should be plenty of lenses for sale on ebay :]

Quote from dvrvarma : Also add the tiffin filter or free http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/...os_product

Thanks! I don't know how you knew this was included too but your post came just in time. In for this deal and cancelled my backordered adorama deal.

Quote from Bim246 : Is it worth selling my t3i to get this?

I am going to unload mine. I have bought 4 T4i's already. One for myself, then wife, and a present for my niece since she wants "a big girl camera" and is tired of point and shoots.

I am returning one order (18-55mm + 55-250mm for $836) to Amazon that was unopened in favor of the B&H deal with the 18-135mm STM + 40mm STM pancake + 55-250mm lens for $999.

I think selling your T3i should cover a large part of your purchase from Amazon.

I was thinking of waiting on a different lens combo. I already have the 18-55, 40mm STM and the 55-250mm. is the 18 - 135mm STM much better than the 18-55mm or only marginally?

Which one is better: the Canon 2400 bag or the amazon basic bag? Thanks.
(The canon 2400 is free too)

What are the odds of Adorama pm'ing the freebies? I just received my order from them yesterday. Anyone have experience with Adorama on something like this?

So i have the t4i + 18-55mm lens..... So is it worth to upgrade to 18-135mm lens?

Quote from SafeRace : The Nikon D5000 that everyone claims is 100% better than the t4i could be had for the exact same price w/ the exact same options attached. The Nikon cameras are typically cheaper than Canon's....you don't need a deal if you're already at the same price point. All of these sudden deals for the t4i are starting to worry me (after purchasing the adorama deal)....I'm wondering if they are trying to offload for a vastly upgrade 5i soon or get rid of all the 55-250 non-STM lenses. Quit peculiar to see 3 outlets aggressively push this same bundle.

Care to explain ? I see that dpreview's side by side comparison and reviews favor T4i over D5000. I respect their reviews and I don't see why T4i is 'not better' than D5000.

I tried when this was first posted. They said they would submit the pm request, but they were doubtful anything would come of it since their price on the bundle is now $854. Worth a shot though right?!

Also, for a few cents more, get a second filter. The discount is up to $12.39, so add two for full use of credit. My order total came to $704.93 with everything listed and two filters.

Son of a... these deals are getting better and better. Makes you regret jumping on the earlier ones.

dammit!! lol going to hop on this and return the adorama deal.

If you shoot video, I think it would be totally worth is because the thing has autofocus, and it's damn quiet. Also, when you compare buying it separately vs in the kit, it makes it very attractive. You could sell the 18-135mm STM and easily recoup $300. The 40mm STM is easily $130 when you sell it.

The last T4i kit that I bought from B&H in early November was a T4i body only, with the 18-55mm lens in it's own retail box with USA warranty.

I think it all comes down to how you use the camera, and if you find value in the additional lenses.

Didn't you mean the d5100?

So i have a T4i with 18-55mm lens, 55-250 ... So is it worth buying the 18-135mm lens and sell the other two?
