[Deal] Rebel T3/EOS 1100D Bargains – Hurry Up!

It’s simple: the Rebel T4i/650D has been announced, older cams (i.e. Rebel T3/1100D) get discounted. That’s good (for us), the T3/1100D is an amazing entry level DSLR (I used it with an EF 16-35mm, and the results were awesome). Be aware that these deals won’t last long. Adorama has some cool T3/1100D deals (going live at 4:30 EST), see them below:

[Pre-Order] EF 40mm f/2.8 Pancake and 18-135mm STM IS Lenses Ready For Pre-Order (Update)

Update: Scott Bourne’s thought about Canon’s pancake (click here). He points out one of the features of the EF 40mm f/2.8 pancake that may get overlooked: the focusing distance of 30cm. techradar had its hands on the little pancake, verdict: Although it’s not an ‘L’ lens, the new 40mm Canon optic feels nicely put together and has a reasonable weight. We found that its focusing motor was much quieter than the 18-55mm kit lens […].
