I was about to jump on this. But the lack of IS concerns me. I hate the fact that my 24-70 doesn't have IS. I see that Adorama says that this lens is ideal for indoor sports in its description. Is there any reason at all to get this lens, assuming I won't be using a tripod when shooting indoor sports, dance, etc? I'm thinking that there is little reason for me to acquire this lens if it does not have IS. I'm guessing that my 70-200 will produce better results. One stop of aperture won't make up for the lack of IS. Anyone disagree or agree? If you're shooting sports you're aiming for a fast shutter speed, and a stop of aperture will make a huge difference. IS is useless in a sports setting. -Michael

Dec 16, 2011 10:55 | #21 I know. I asked my wife for this for Christmas. I sent her this link and told her if she had already bought it from B&H that they should give a refund. She hasn't replied. If she hasn't bought it, I wish she would just tell me to do it! Canon EOS M6 Mark II - EOS R5

Dec 16, 2011 16:13 | #23 Well I just threw down. How long does it usually take something to show up on Mr Rebates? After the order is billed and shipped? I just registered for Mr Rebates and got a $5 bonus as a surprise! I picked up the 135L and a 580EX for $383 after rebate. Merry Christmas! Canon EOS M6 Mark II - EOS R5

It should take 1-2 days to show up as "pending" on your Mr Rebates account. You will get an email for this.

In years past, there have been a few good deals at Christmas, but not to the extent that we're seeing this year.

As for available rebates, that probably takes 75-90 days. Thanks. This was my first time using Mr Rebates and I was worried I hadn't done it right. Canon EOS M6 Mark II - EOS R5

Dec 17, 2011 13:02 | #30 I'm with you all that are uber tempted. Argh. First three Canon 5Ds. Some lights (some really fancy ones too). Some glass (maybe a few too many but who's keeping track?). Some cool stamps on my passport.
