Bumped into Art Samaniego of Manila Bulletin during the Nokia N82 Adventure II launch this afternoon and he casually mentioned that there’s a new Canon Lens Sale promo going on at Digital Zone. So I dropped by at dZone on the way to my next meeting.
True enough, the prices from previous lens sale was pulled down a bit more, plus a couple new models. Here’s the current line up.

Canon EF 100mm Macro F2.8 - Php 21,710 (down from Php 30,600) - almost bought this one but they didn’t have them on stock
Of course, street prices in Hidalgo, Quiapo will be slightly different.

U - Ultra Sonic Motor
L - Luxury line




































I just hope it will be there until my vacation on April 1
The 85 1.2L is a specific function lens - it doesn’t focus very fast (not as fast as my 85 1.8, at least), and the 1.2 gives you very, very shallow DoF - but it’s a dream to use. It’s a lovely portait lens, and definitely a piece that a wedding photographer would love to have.
is there any for nikon? I am just an enthusiast and I have a nikon d80. It’s just a hobby so I have no plans of overspending for a lens that I wont be using. I like landscape and portrait photography
wow, this is very helpful.
i didn’t know about this sale.
thanks
This is the problem with the Canon cameras. Lenses arent cheap and IS is not built-in with the camera body.
Go with Pentax cameras, cheap lenses, in-body IS, water/dust proof design. I highly recommend the pentax k100d or if the have the buck, k10d or the newer models k200d and k20d.
hmm expensive hobby.. for cheapskates (like me) try nyo papercrafting
Canon EF 70-300mm IS U F4.5-5.6 - Php 28,500 (down from Php 40,300)- sana meron ako neto
