Canon USA Spring 2009 Rebates

Canon USA has begun their Spring instant rebate program. It runs from May 3 to July 11. Considering the poor availability of lenses, the rebate program seems quite generous. The usual suspects are present. The most interesting rebate is for the (very expensive) EF 200mm f/2L IS USM. As expected, there is no rebate for the EOS 5D Mark II yet. Expect to see one in the Fall, most likely.
