Does the 5D III generally go on sale at that time of year as well and if so, approx. what's the final price after rebates etc.?

Looking at that and lens prices, it seems there is no difference in final prices. There's been a reduction in prices with lenses: basically is an instant rebate for them now (sale prices were reduced to the after mail-in rebate price). My 5DmkIII was the current price with $200 mail in rebate. The rebate wound up being an American Express debit card. Canon 5D mk IV

Then keep on checking CPW: they do seem like the best place in finding deals. I'll probably try their street prices next time I'm in the market for a lens. It can be somewhat random when good deals present themselves. Canon 5D mk IV
